[QUOTE="Dumbo, post: 4291245, member: 67762"] It's literally the title of the post and explaining that drivers should be able to conceal and carry under certain requirements. When it comes to firearms, I don't think most people have the capacity to quell the rush of adrenaline and think clearly, and calmly when faced with a major confrontation. I don't think it can really be trained into people based off incidents like these where the police literally just went bat :censored: crazy and they all fed off each other. I do think training may help a little bit, but really handling confrontation comes down to natural personality type. I believe people who are generally more calm and relaxed, those who are usually more measured in their attitudes are more of the type that can be armed and use it only in the absolute necessary of times. I'm generally a very relaxed person and I carried a gun for 15 years both for my job and in public with my family, and I can admit there was always more of a invincible weight I carried with me, as if nobody could :censored: with me because I'm armed. I would often ask myself how I would handle a violent confrontation, would I escalate it because I had a gun? I always told myself I wouldn't but you never know, nobody does until someone is right there trying to :censored: with you. [/QUOTE]
