on Cracking Down on Gun Violence

I wish I had realised this discussion was going on. I'm late to the game and really really wanted to call in.

Firstly; Laws effect whom? Those who follow them. Do criminals follow laws? No. Thusly...more laws make little to no sense.

Secondly; From what laws pertaining to guns I've seen, heard of, and researched it is not a matter of MORE laws, but actually enforcing those that exist currently.

Finally; China's gun laws work, right? The UK's gun laws work, right? Australia's gun laws work, right?

I'm sick of politicians wanting to do good by opening their mouths and proclaiming that book law will prevail when it is actually feet-on-the ground cops getting the guns out of CRIMINAL hands that make the difference. You cut my local cop-shop's funding, pass laws that make carrying a defensive weapon illegal and expect me to live free and flourish?

Logic is a lost art.

on Unpacking Heat

I have no issue with impotence or feeling weak. I have issue with the fact that criminals strike any and everywhere they choose. My toddler and wife are the reasons I carry as it's my duty as father and husband to protect them. A common, well used phrase that is sadly a truth; 'When seconds count, the police are just minutes away!'

 For my own part I believe NOT carrying(concealed) is an injustice to my family. Though I respect your opinion, Virginia, it seems that you're woefully uninformed about why many people carry.
