[QUOTE="RetCapt, post: 1391058, member: 7102"] My decision was based on 3 points. 1. When the original CCL law was passed, I thought it was OK but not really needed for most folks. Then Sept 11th came along. Made my thinking a lot more conscious of the many soft targets our society has everywhere. 2. I began to realize that crime victims are just folks like me, minding their own business, and they get selected by a sh*thead to do something bad. I wanted to have an equalizer. My wife even encouraged me since we noticed that there were a number of attacks in [I]churches[/I]. 3. There are so many idiots out there that really believe that the 2nd Amendment is intended for some nebulous militia that they can't define properly. I wanted to get the license to demonstrate the concept of the armed individual citizen. I've been carrying almost 9 yrs and haven't had to use my firearm yet...and remember, when seconds count, the police are minutes away. [/QUOTE]
