A general consensus question, "Why do you carry a gun?" Here are some sentiments from "Gun Owners": -We just want to be safe -Vigilance, not Paranoia -We Dont Want to Shoot Anyone -Its a Dangerous World
Non-Gun Owners views: -Gun People Think Theyre Rambo! -You Have to be Paranoid to Carry a Gun -Itll be the Wild West All Over Again! Theyre Going to Shoot us All!
What do you all think? Read the article why carry gun here

Too young to die. Too old to fight fair. Back off.

I do it because I have an unbridled right to. I carry a 45 ACP with DRTs because it is just silly to shoot twice.

I’ve been assaulted and seriously injured three times. For nearly two years I was stalked by a neighbor who came on my property, followed me around town and told people I frightened him and he was going to have to kill me. (I moved away and he continued to stalk me for 18 months, then finally give up.) I was going to stop carrying, but the house I moved into had formerly been a meth lab. People would get out of prison and come looking for the former owner, sometimes at 2:00 am. Given the history, I feel much safer with the gun on me at all times.

Two cracked ribs, a broken wrist and 30 staples in my head, as a young Domino’s driver trying to follow the rules.
