You're clearly out of your league.

Because he's more knowledgeable than you? No need to get triggered.

I gave my opinion on the subject which is what the OP asked for. Obviously the gun zealots don’t appreciate anyone who isn’t 100% pro-gun 100% of the time. I asked for non biased resources and was called an imbecile. I’m not triggered whatsoever, as I stated that I don’t reallly care about the subject all that much. I have an opinion on it, and I’m even willing to be swayed, but I haven’t found any of the “arguments” in the thread to be based upon anything other than planning for the minuscule chance that something may happen to them or their family.
How many people in this thread who carry have ever had to use their gun for self defense?

Which is why you've spent a full day in a 13 page thread arguing about it.

It has been pointed out multiple times that taking preventative measures against unlikely catastrophes is something everyone does nearly every day. You're just triggered because you don't like guns.

I haven't and I pray I never do. I also have never needed my seat belt, my riding helmet, the deadbolt on my front door, the oxygen mask in a passenger jet, the smoke detectors in my home, etc. etc. ad infinitum.

Regardless of the subject I'm interested in hearing perspectives that differ from my own. I feel like that's how we learn and become better people.

I've been called triggered and emotional a few times in this thread, I think that's pretty funny. I'm far from either. I guess that's the NPC response when someone's opinion differs from your own.

None of these other preventative measures have the potential to deal damage to you or your family.

There are a lot of jackasses that should not have guns. I will give you that. But, having a gun for protection is perfectly fine and in my opinion, a good thing to have. Chances are I will never need mine. Good. I hope I never do. But if I have to, I will absolutely shoot to kill. It’s something no one wants to use, but it’s there if you need it. My kids will learn about gun safety and learn early. That way, they will have been exposed, know its dangers and won’t have that dangerous urge of curiosity to go look for it. It’s all about personal responsibiltiy and accountability.

I can definitely respect that.
I'm done with this thread, it was exhausting but helped kill a slow work day yesterday

Amazing how after getting your arse handed to you for 13 pages you go from this:

Just remember, violence happens fast, without warning and unexpectedly. I don’t see it as living in fear. I will be ready if the situation ever calls for it. I don’t live in fear because I can respond.

Because I went from generally fricking around and trolling (albeit using my real opinion, but in an inflammatory manner that I knew would draw ire) to attempting to have a real conversation on the subject with my opinions on the matter. Obviously the "don't live my life scared" was going to strike a nerve with people here.
Anyway, like I said I'm out.
ETA: this "getting your arse handed to you for 13 pages" is also cute

Oh, ok. I'll change my opinion due to your anecdotal evidence. Thanks.

I’ll be honest here. I support CCH, but really, most of the people I know with one talk about guns all the time. If it’s not that big a deal then just shut up about it .
The other is, no one carries a gun into my house, ever. I’ve had some rather heated arguments ( on their end, I just keep saying , No) with friends or husbands of the wife’s friends. It’s pretty simple, I provide the security in my home, if that’s not good enough for you then you’re free to go.
That’s why LEO’s aren’t allowed in my home as well ( which is a good idea anyway).

How would you know? Concealed is just that.
I carry just about everywhere I go. I don't talk about it with others. You could be sitting at a light when someone tries to carjack you.
You don't know when you'll need it. If you did, you wouldn't go there.

The explanation i have been told is that if you are in a vehicle or dwelling and a LEO comes and asks the owner if there are any weapons he should be aware about, the owner should know about yours.
