[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 109303, member: 324"] I agree with Sluggo. Not that laws change all things - it's already illegal to carry a firearm in a drinking establishment. And some might do this, it's not a good idea to mix guns and booze. I never wore my seatbelt, until it became illegal not to do so. The law (and having children who watch my every move) made me do this. Few can argue against the effectiveness of seat belts, by the way. What I feel he's trying to say is (and I think I have this right), if every 10th or 20th person was armed, the terrorists might be less likely to attack. And I'm not saying that it's up to the government to decide who is armed (although that's how it is now). I don't mean that I should decide either. I just think that if the terrorist had an idea that they might get blown away, they might look elsewhere. If they die before killing the infidel, then they fail. The point has been made before, on this site, that whether or not you carry, should be up to you. If you don't pass the test, then you can't make the decision. If you don't want to carry, then don't. But if you want to carry, and are doing so legally, I don't see the harm in it. Another point to be made is that all of this discussion assumes one huge thing that we might be overlooking. We are assuming that these people are sane - that they're scared of getting caught, or shot. I think that they only thing they're afraid of is failure, or being called gay! [/QUOTE]
