havesomeseichel – Do you really think that the average college student is going to carry a gun to class? Or the average high school teacher carry a gun to school? How many normal people outside of the Southwest are going to carry a gun on the street as a matter of habit? Even if it’s legal?
Most people who use guns own long guns – rifles or shotguns – and use them for hunting or target practice. These aren’t the kind of weapons you carry to the mall, or leave loaded in your nightstand. There are a few people making a lot of noise about being able to carry handguns. Don’t confuse them with the majority of gun owners who don’t have fantasies of being Clint Eastwood.
