I used to carry 24/7/365 for decades.

No longer bother.

As long as some wildcard $hitbird going off misses my a$$, I could care less about the remainder.

The delusion that one takes out some deranged shooter in a public setting is just that... A delusion.

Should such delusion manifest it is assured that those you “saved” will all sue your ass for the emotional trauma and distress to their persons you caused.

I have no doubt you are correct. There is no interest, on my part, to start slinging lead with criminals or insane people in public. The laws are different for each state. In my particular case, we were instructed on what was permissible in given situations.

My first instinct, in a situation like that, would be finding cover for me and whoever is with me. If we're directly threatened, at least I don't have to worry about being at a disadvantage. With my luck, I would be in a position to take out the bad guy, then find myself shot by LE personnel.

I doubt that Jeanne Assam would agree.

If the Bay County school board had been armed, they could have offed the shooter instead of pleading "Please Don't, Please don't". Luckily, the shooter missed them.

That is your choice as an American Citizen.

The problem is when our Legislators want to deny that choice for others.

I live in CA where obtaining a Conceal Carry Permit is nearly impossible unless you are a Politician or retired Police Officer.

Be glad you have the choice to carry, I have none and am at the mercy of Lawbreakers who could care less what our “leaders” think is good for us Serfs.

“The delusion that one takes out some deranged shooter in a public setting is just that... A delusion.”

Unfortunately for you reality doesn’t say that. Plenty of people have taken out a bad guy. Sorry to know you are a puss that wouldn’t try much less think to do so.

Name one time that has ever happened. Go ahead, loudmouth, we’ll wait.

Does that mean that you care more?
