"Well trained" is the operative word, what many "gun advocates" are saying in the wake of this is, that all gun laws should be repealed.
Does training also teach the discipline to know when is the proper time to draw your weapon and when not to? I have no problem with well trained, reasonable, sane people carrying firearms, however there must be laws in place to ensure that only well trained, reasonable, sane people have access to and can carry firearms. I do think you're asking for trouble by carrying a gun in a holster on your hip everywhere you go. -- Scott Stewart ColdFusion Developer SSTWebworks 7241 Jillspring Ct.

I know plenty of people with conceal and carry permits, and they aren't the type to back down, but that involves known and reasonable actions.
