I feel sorry for people who feel the need to carry for protection. But I can certainly understand any provider wanting to carry. I’ve known plenty that do, and I sympathize with them.

And I’m sorry, but I think that open carry is daft. I haven’t seen any deer strolling down Congress Ave. And the notion that you might need it is goofy. By the time you know you need it, it’s probably too late.

I support the second amendment. But even the members of the best well regulated militias leave their weapons at the armory when they hit the town.

I can't remember where I heard it but there's an old saying, when guns were only revolvers and no automatics:
If you're going to carry a gun, make sure to put a hundred dollar bill in one of the chambers to pay for your funeral expenses.
