I think that it would be a hint that he’s trying to sell me a house in a crappy neighborhood.

Hoplophobes? I had to look it up, means a fear of weapons. At first I thought it was a fear of the Hops in Beer.

How do you feel about your Realtor carrying a gun?

Much better than my squatter carrying a gun.

No one needs to know whether he/she has a gun or not. A criminal could pretend to be a home buyer and use a realtor to break in to someone’s house.

We had a realtor murdered while showing a house in Arkansas not long ago.

Responses following my YES vote moments ago:

YES = 63.60%
NO = 36.40%

When leftwingers see a poll going against their wishes, they will just close it down and remove it from the website.
That is their version of taking their ball and running home.

How about answer c)If the realtor is doing CCW correctly, I should never know, and that in itself is reassuring.

Screw these disarm people.
A manager of mine many years ago who moonlighted as a realtor was found dead - raped and strangled, in a home she was showing.

She was a feisty gal, but fairly small - I've always thought that if she'd been armed the outcome would have been different.

I think the clearest question would be "Would you prefer that your Realtor be unarmed?"

No, the clearest question would be:

"Do you believe that, of the thousands of different professions practiced in the U.S., real-estate agents should be DENIED their Constitutional right to bear arms? And if so: Why them and not, say, pastry chefs, kindergarten teachers, or ballet dancers?"

Regards,

My realtor? Most people’s interactions with a realtor are far and few in between.

Realtor’s however deal with people on a daily basis in god who knows where out of the way locations. Female realtor’s who have their face out there are particularly at risk. If a realtor cannot afford a body guard, they should learn how to use a gun and keep it on their person at ALL Times.

I have a great real estate agent, if I found out she wasn’t carrying, I’d buy her a pistol as a gift for doing a good job.

I could never understand why more realtors don’t carry guns. They seem to be in very vulnerable situations in their normal business day.....

If I were a realtor, and especially a woman, I would certainly be armed.

Why would it matter to me one way or the other? The only question here would be is the realtor doing a good job finding me a home or not..
