How many people carrying do you think have not thought through the "Are they ready to kill someone?" scenarios?Because it comes down to one simple fact. Are they ready to kill someone? That is the question that everyone that carries has to ask themselves. If you pull the gun you had better be ready to use it.
I am all for carrying but along with that comes the responsibility of being proficient with the firearm and knowing the laws. That requires dedicated time.
Is that part of getting a permit? I see many states are moving to allow permitless concealed carry? So no training required? People concealed carrying guns legally without even firing one.... Yikes.
