    I am in Colorado and we carry open and concealed. It is SO nice to know you are protected.
    Personally I prefer knowing that, so long as you stay away from organised crime, you're not at risk of being shot.

    Good luck, let me know how that works out for you.
    And again, it worries me that so many Americans seem unable to imagine a civilisation where you really can survive without a gun.

    I live in Alaska and carry my Glock around everywhere. It's open carry up here and rather normal.

    I personally carry a laughably video game like arsenal of weapons everywhere I go. 007 Golden Gun on my hip. Halo Sniper Rifle at my side, and BFG on my back. It's like Grand theft Auto around here.
    Don't be silly. My comment was the fact that you think their are places in the world without crime. That not being around organized crime (the mafia I assume you mean) makes you safe. Random civilians never get shot. The news is all about fluffy kitty cats, ponies

    I feel strongly about this subject.

    Responsible, well educated people should be welcomed to posess firearms, as well as to educate others and demonstrate proper use, handling, and responsible ownership of firearms. I cannot stress enough the need for more people who act responsibly that are firearm owners and less stories in the news about "small child finds parents gun and shoots self". THIS IS IRRESPONSIBLE FIREARM OWNERSHIP. Lack of education about firearms and proper handling lead to accidents. The wrong people with the wrong intentions cause crime. The right to bear arms is constitutional but a priviledge, in my opinion. Not every person in America deserves this priviledge.


    I own firearms and other weapons for my personal, recreational, and protective use. I have been educated through all state regulations and in my state it is NOT easy to get a permit or to purchase a firearm. You bet your sweet behind if I get attacked I will be able to defend myself, I will not be sitting there wishing "hm, if only I wasnt so helpless" while being attacked. But hey thats me.

    And when I have children, they will be educated too.

    No, I don't think anywhere is devoid of crime. When I say organised, I mean gang, mafia, drug related etc; anything involving a network of criminals rather than individuals.

    Doesn't matter have a gun don't have a gun, who cares. I'm probably being stupid for speaking publicly about owning guns in the first place. I should start pretending to be a liberal so people don't try to rob me of my guns. Or if they want to kill me I will be underestimated.
