If everyone boarding an airplane was given a handgun, travelers would be more polite. If you have a concealed carry permit, you must act responsibly. You also are not supposed to take the law in your own hands and only shoot if your life is in danger. Most criminals are cowards and are afraid of confrontation if they do not have the upper hand.

Back in November I witnessed a hit and run accident. Car that hit a truck, sped off and I followed. I called 911, told them of the situation, gave description of the car along with license plate number. The license plate was stolen or whatever. I followed the black gal for a number of blocks, weaving around a number of streets in the ghetto. The 911 responder told me to drop back and not follow to closely until the police arrived. They told me to be careful in case the person had a gun. Told them I have a concealed permit. They were concerned that I would shoot. I told them, I will not fire unless fired upon! I could see that the gal ahead of me and the passenger knew I was behind them. I could see the passenger had a cell phone and was talking to someone. I was following them through a maze of streets with virtually no traffic. All of a sudden a whole bunch of cars came from nowhere and I had to slow down and stop for them. That was just enough time for the gal to get away when her friends ran interference. The police came just after this happened and all of the other cars disappeared. Next time, if there is one, I'm going to be much more proactive.

For close quarters, I like my Sig 229 .40 S&W with laser sights. When I need to reach out, the S&W .357 Mag with 8 3/8 barrel is just the ticket. Never go anywhere without one of them and atleast 1 box of ammo.

Carry and conceal permits are only for people with cool heads that never flaunt the weapon or respond unnecessarily. If you shoot someone, it better be for a good reason and you will likely be sued by the family of the criminal. Only in America! eh!
