Because I have a Constitutional right to bear arms. I have discovered that the government assumes you know your rights and that if you do not exercise them that you then waive such rights. Until I can express this right properly, I will exercise a privilege with the state.
To change the attitudes of people concerning guns and the people that carry them.
As a consequence of carrying a weapon, I hold myself to a higher moral, ethical, and legal standard.
Because the right to self-defense is a God given inalienable Natural Right.
