 Almost had to pull my gun on someone a few nights ago

I was going for a late night walk in Pittsburgh kind of near where the Heinz ketchup factory used to be. It was about midnight. I noticed that this car kept circling the area. All of a sudden that car came around and stopped in front of me. This guy jumped out. He had a big mag-light flashlight (the kind that the cops have and that can be used to beat you with). He started coming at me like he was going to hit me.
I started to back up and I started to reach for my gun (I have a concealed carry permit). He says in a very aggressive voice, "Who are you and what are you doing down here? Where were you coming from?" I said, "Who are you? You don't look like a cop. I'm coming from [my neighborhood] and I like to go for walks down here." He said that he was a security guy that drove around to make sure everything was ok down there. I cautiously handed my concealed carry permit to him to show him ID, but to also show him that I had a gun on me.
We started talking and he was telling me some weird shit. I guess there are a lot of break-ins down there. He said that in the past month he has detained 9 people who were trying to steal shit. He said he even took a guy down who was reaching in his pocket. He then goes and tells me his life story about how he got divorced years ago and how he is trying to start up a security company. He actually seemed like a cool guy.
But...damn...I almost blew his fucking head off.

Good job man.
The limpwristed will blast you for carrying a gun, but the responsiblity that falls on your shoulders is immense.
If anything happened to go down in your presence that required action to save someone elses life then you are obligated to protect people because you have chosen to be a gun carrying member of society. The people that I know who carry guns are VERY understanding of what their duty will be in certain situations and don't take that responsiblity lightly. The world needs more people willing to shed their own blood for the good of society.

Do you see my avatar? I am only 5'7, I have an inferiority complex, and I feel a need to exert power over other people to compensate for this.
 Just kidding. I like guns and I thought it would be cool to be able to carry one. It also makes me feel a lot safer in the city.

You also get to be that guy that saves someone if the situation falls in your path.

No problem. I would not hesitate for a second to blow away some piece of trash assaulter or robber that was threatening the life of an innocent civilian.

That's pretty cool. Are there any special requirements? I guess you have to take a class or two?

Not in my state. You can just walk in and walk right back out with it in about 20 minutes. muhahahahahahaha!!!!
I am super pro-gun, but I think they should make you at least take a class in my state (much like you have to take a test for a driver's license).

it happens. rather regularly really.
I've seen some statistics that made me think twice about
keeping a gun in the home...and they didn't come from
granniesagainstgunlovers.com or anything either.

Hm...I might be interested in seeing some of these statistics (as long as they are from an unbiased source...I don't want to see stuff from the NRA nor from some rabid anti-gun organization). I have never had a bad occurrence with my gun. The fun and safe feeling I have received from my "gat" (yo yo) have made it a worthwhile purchase.

that sounds pretty scary living there, I would carry a gun too..I would hate to have to use it, I usually am against guns...but hey in big cities I would get a gun permit too...one of my friends had one when he was living in Washington state, he liked to go target practicing and hunting...

No pun intended here I just want to make a good point. You can carry a gun around all day long and feel like you're the man. When it comes down to somebody pulling a gun on you just trying to take your wallet what exactly are you going to do. If you pull your gun you better be prepared to use it because believe me they will.
Death isn't an easy thing... Death is final.. Some people underestimate this and feel like they are god with their guns. Would you really be able to pull the trigger that easy and dismiss another human life?
People get shot with their own guns all the time. It is because when push comes to shove they can't pull the trigger.

The only time I'd consider having a gun would be whenever I get my own home. And even then, it'd be something like a Remington pump shotgun.....
