Why are people so scared? I have guns but don't need to carry them on me to protect myself.

I carry not because I am scared, but because I am aware. I am aware of what evil and sadistic acts that humans are capable of doing to one another. Often times for no apparent reason at all.

If at some point during my every day life that I am placed in a position where I have an opportunity to try to stop an evil and horrible act from happening to an innocent person, then I hope that I am capable of preventing it. Having a firearm drastically increases my chances of being successful.

If I can stop a woman or child or even you from being raped/kidnapped/murdered by using that gun then my purpose is served. Whether I live or die as a result matters none. I'll accept my fate.

I'm a very protective person.
