Quote:1. What is the difference of me carrying a gun next to you in the store/gas station/my home or business, and me having a gun on an airliner?
Quote:2. You support gun ownership, yet you say you do not trust people with them. Please clear up the contradiction for me. I really do NOT understand the logic.

Quote:I have no problem with concealed carry laws. I think my problem with anyone with a gun on an airplane is my claustrophobia. No place to hide on a plane. Unless I was also carrying and could protect myself. It's doubtful that I would carry a gun on a plane. I rarely carry anywhere else, except traveling alone.

Quote:In reality, the most heavily armed societies are the least polite societies. Who's more polite, the citizens of Hamburg or the citizens of Atlanta? How polite is it anyway to blow someone away?
