Unfortunately for me, part of my job involves telling no to and arguing my decision with people who are much further up the food chain and much more highly paid than myself, so adopting a more pacifistic point of view about things of this nature is not as easy as it could be given that it's part of my regular life.


I laughed at the veiled political comment above regarding concealed carry. Where I live one of age can carry legally without a permit or so much as even a class, yet I don't tread in fear that someone will pull a gun. That's just silly.
Wait...I hope you're joking....you don't even have to have a permit anymore?

If that law was enacted here, I'd move in a heartbeat. I'd not be willing to my daughter, wife, or myself get shot because one of us says something to set off a lunatic with a gun.
