Consider the potential for illegal gun ownership by criminals and the
need for more citizens to protect themselves from being victimized by
their violent crimes. Now you have you answer from above of why the need
to carry a gun in public.
Have you personally had a gun drawn on you at all?
Yes, several times, once by cops. Now it seems that they have legitimate
concerns when someone pulls out a phone. Next protocol will be for them
to only 'return fire' just like those stupid 'Rules of Engagement' where
soldiers have to wait to be shot at before shooting at obvious attackers.
I agree about the soldier bit being wrong "to have to wait" etc, but
why did the cops point a gun at you, what had you done that was so bad
for them to do that?
