27. But why the desire to carry a gun in the first place?
I live in a typical middle class area and never once have I thought to myself, "I wish I had a gun...just in case". Bad things do happen and maybe they can be prevented if you carry a gun at all times, but personally I'd rather take my chances...and we'll probably never agree on this, but I actually feel safer knowing my teachers and fellow students aren't allowed to have a gun on campus.

Again, I'm not picking on you or your right to own a gun, but I'm just curious why you want to carry a concealed weapon.
