Sadly, I read each and every comment.

The lack of education on concealed carry and it's intent, the incredible track record of CHL holders and the fact that they likely stand next to armed CHL soccer moms in the checkout line at the local supermarket every week are all ideas to which they are totally oblivious.

All they can ask is "Why would anyone need to carry a weapon into a restaurant targeted toward kids entertainment?"

I can guarantee that these are all people that if posed with the question: "Who is responsible for the safety and well being of your spouse and children?" They would answer "The police." These are the type of people that believe someone else or some magic entity is in control of everything important in their lives.

The safety and well being of my family is my responsibility - and this is why I carry. This most basic and simple idea is as foreign to these people as quantum physics is to a goat.

Here in Texas we have built massive internationally respected medical centers, landed men on the moon, pioneered the development of integrated circuits and continue to pioneer methods that produce the lions share of energy that runs this country yet they see us as knuckle dragging neanderthals.

How do you reach these people? Why are they so alienated from the core basic principles of self-reliability and self-accountability that make up the cornerstone of what it means to be free?
