It might reduce the number of politicians. Could we not count that as a good thing?

I dont have a problem with concealed carry laws. You could always refuse entry to persons carrying. I doubt many people would want the burden of carrying a side arm.

But there is always the chance that someday someone may want what you have in your house and there wont be anyone who can help but you.

The problem with a gun in the house is that there is a good chance that an intruder could find your gun and be waiting for you when you return home.

But after 9 11 I decided that if the situation escalated I did not want to be at the mercy of those who might seek to take advantage of circumstances where the police may be very occupied with disaster response.
