Which one of you employees/coworkers do you NOT want to be having a gun on their person?

Are you comfortable with that thought?



I did that this morning. It didn't scare me a bit, especially when I considered that those people were sitting behing the wheel of what could become a 3000 lb. killing machine. But none of them were trying to kill anyone, intentionally anyways. That's the way it is with gun owners too. For every armed criminal there are hundreds of decent people who work for a living, just like for every psycho behind the wheel there are hundreds who drive peacefully to work every day. Where I live a lot of the people around me legally carry guns. They keep them concealed and go about their business, and nobody is the wiser.
