Are you saying you carry because there are unstable people out there. Do you want to go back to the days of the wild west where everyone wore agun on their hip and disputes were settled with a gun. I agree one needs tro protect ones self from unstable people but carrying a gun goes too far.

LOL, that is exactly what all the worry-warts said when Texas was considering passing concealed carry. "The blood will run like rivers". Guess what, it never happened. Educate yourself on the facts instead of what you hear from the left.
How you going to protect yourself against unstable people?

With all this talk of “The Wild West”, I thought it might be informative to look at the reality of crime in the “wild west” cattle towns and compare them to the peaceful streets of such eastern, gun-control paradises as DC, New York, Baltimore and
Newark.
In his book, Frontier Violence: Another Look, author W. Eugene Hollon, provides us with these astonishing facts:

  • In Abilene, Ellsworth, Wichita, Dodge City, and
    Caldwell, for the years from 1870 to 1885, there were only 45 total homicides. This equates to a rate of approximately 1 murder per 100,000 residents per year.
  • In
    Abilene, supposedly one of the wildest of the cow towns, not a single person was killed in 1869 or 1870.
Zooming forward over a century to 2007, a quick look at Uniform Crime Report statistics shows us the following regarding the aforementioned gun control “paradise” cities of the east:

  • DC – 183 Murders (31 per 100,000 residents)

  • New York – 494 Murders (6 per 100,000 residents)

  • Baltimore – 281 Murders (45 per 100,000 residents)

  • Newark – 104 Murders (37 per 100,000 residents)


It doesn’t take an advanced degree in statistics to see that a return to “wild west” levels of violent crime would be a huge improvement for the residents of these cities.
The truth of the matter is that the “wild west” wasn’t wild at all … not compared to a Saturday night in
Newark. [end quote]


I'm not a fan of conceal though, shoulder holsters or such. We should know who's carrying.

I would love to sport a Ninja sword around town, that would be cool.

Everyone should conceal carry (sarcasm)

The death toll would of been much higher with a 100 people shooting at each other in a dark movie theater

Incorrect!
Most of then lefties would shoot themselves in the foot trying to draw their weapon, so there could be more in juries but not fatalities.
