how do you propose they train managers with guns. the manager of the store may work 60 hours a week.. maybe three or four assisant managers. who are mostly mothers working to support families and doubt they are interested in carrying guns. the turnover in assistant managers is also very high.

Now if you own a corp. you would want your employees carrying guns. there is nothing to stop the assistant managers , managers from going off the deep end too. You are presenting a more life threatening situation imo to employees and customers. cannot agree with you.

do not know if we are staying on subject of thread. see ya

In this timely and provocative work he comes to a startling conclusion: more guns mean less crime.

Nice dig. Here is some more food for thought.

The most heavily armed country in Europe is the only country that trains every man in firearm use and then issues him a gun and ammunition to keep at home for life.

That country was not attacked in either world war.

That country enjoys the lowest rate of violent crime.

The name of that country is Switzerland.
