[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 355249, member: 12570"] Sat/Sober, I believe I will stay right here in good ol' Upstate NY, where I can go to work and, if I forgot to lock my door, oh well, no big deal. Perhaps I am naive or sheltered or whatever you want to call it but I most certainly do not see the need to pack heat. Sober, you made a point which I would like to counter. You said that the best way to deter violent crimes is to arm potential victims. I would counter that you would simply escalate the situation from a robbery to a fatality, most likely that of the victim. I should have prefaced this by saying that I have experienced murder in my family (and I will not discuss this beyond this statement) thus the strong anti-gun stance. I was military and endured the annual firearms training and actually received the marksmanship award. If I were a business owner I would not allow anyone, whether it be a customer or a UPS driver, in to my place of business if they were carrying a weapon, whether concealed or not. [/QUOTE]
