Sounds like a great opportunity to make a convert. Tell her she could make it up to you by going with you to the range.

My father (USMC Ret. Vietnam ) told me once that you should always trust your first instincts. Your gut is usually correct. If that's how she reacts to carrying legally, imagine she when she sees the gun safes in my office. Or my elk, deer and bobcat mounts in my living room. Or finds me cleaning the dove I shot this morning. I'm not in the market for a drama queen. I just divorced one.

Not suggesting you marry the girl, just a trip to the range. I would think, after what she put you through, seeing her out of her comfort zone would be a little fun.

I disagree. There is no point in making yourself out to be the bad guy through your actions, only to justify her hysteria regarding "gun nuts". I think he did the honorable thing, and ensured none of his actions warranted her response to discovering his pistol. Remember, his friends set him up, so there is still some connection to this person, even if indirect.
