Congratulations for everyone with a CPL for having the right to carry concealed. YOU were allowed to do your duty to God, Family, and the State today.
I understand your point of view. Let's wait till the time is right before we try to do something. We should wait till a legal ruling has been made before we risk arrest. Let's get the representatives to do something about it, before we do something about it ourselves. Seattle could rule on it and then all of us will be unarmed, (or criminals). These are valid points for YOU.
It also sounds like YOU would enjoy knowing that today while out walking if YOUR jacket had rode up and YOUR gun was exposed, YOU wouldn't have to worry about having commited some crime.
I, on the otherhand, had no such "right" to conceal my gun when I stepped outside on Saturday morning. Tomorrow when I wake up, if I untuck my shirt, I will be called a criminal. Being how I am only the 2nd class citizen, I will wake up tomorrow and be forced to carry openly. This isn't about YOU. This is about ME. I AM the one backed into the corner, and I AM fighting when I AM pushed.
That being said, what follows has nothing to do with the reason I protect my wife, doing my duty to God, family, and state;

But, once again. This isn't about you or any agenda. This is about ME. My NECK is on the line when I do MY DUTY to protect MY WIFE on Thursday.Isn't now the time? We are told, not that there might be, but there are terrorist among us. Our citizen's, our children, our way of life has been threaten by a known enemy. Al Qaeda says 4 million of us must die for them to celebrate a Islamic victory. We have borders wide open still to this day, (most citizens realize this). Sure, we don't have a good governor now on this issue. But, if made an issue now, by the time it gets to the governor's desk, he will be replaced. Since 9/11, I would think more citizens would realize that guns are not the cause of the violence, (hatred is).
