This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Concealed Carry - Anyone? by LeLuni
I'll be getting my license this spring. My Dad said he was going to apply and do the course, and I jumped at the chance to join him. This conversation actually began before Newtown, but casual conversation has obviously drifted towards that topic.
I can see myself having a firearm semi-permanently in the car, but I can hardly envision carrying everywhere I go. Maybe when I go to the mall, downtown, or other public and somewhat crowded place (?).
I'm curious as to who here currently has the Concealed Carry permit, as well as what they carry, and under what circumstances. I don't currently own a firearm, so I'm in the market for one and would like to hear your thoughts.
