[QUOTE="kevy73, post: 371897, member: 23493"] Thanks to the OP who made this topic, I find it fascinating. Coming from a country that doesn't allow guns to be carried I find the comments here amazing, insightful and (not directed towards the posters but the situation) kind of abhorrent. Let me clarify. I have nothing but complete respect for those of you who CC. It is borne out of necessity I am guessing. What I find sad, scary et al is that some of us live in places where this is required. I can honestly say that in my 41 years of living I have never ever once felt my life has been threatened. I have been in brawls etc, but I have never been in a life threatening situation. I guess some of us are truly lucky to live in countries where up till now we have been very protected. Of you that do CC, how many do you think if push came to shove would actually use it? Is it more a point it and threaten or do you think there would be a time / reason to justifiably use it? Again, I am not asking to judge, I am asking because I don't think I would be able to. Also of you who do CC, do you think you would rather live in a place where guns were banned or are you happy with the "right to bear arms?" No judging here, truly fascinated. [/QUOTE]
