Thread Name: Gun Ownership - are you really safe?
Subject: RE: Gun Ownership - are you really safe?
There are 10,000 people in Maine who are licensed to carry concealed. That scares me. Handling a long gun is almost second nature to a rural Mainer, but a hand gun is a whole other bag of rats.I can't believe that all of those people are qualified to carry. Where did they get their training?
Gun violence seems to be on the rise, it makes the news, and it causes us to worry. However, the thought of EVERYONE carrying a gun is just not acceptable.
