Nice

Why CCW works.

    So basically concealed carry only works if you travel in the group of 3 or more while waving a banner “At least of us is armed with a gun”?

    Nonsense is right. Why didn’t anyone pick up on that? And how far away was the attacker? Surely, no one would suggest that you can pull out your concealed gun on a surprise attacker 5 yards away from you? Or even have time to recognize a sudden act of otherwise inconspicuous individual to be that of an aggression? Is the element of surprise really useless against an armed individual? Does it mean we don’t need to have an alert mindset once we strap a gun before going out?

    If you’re going to promote the right to carry with fables, you can bet your ass the anti-s will pick it apart and turn it around you, which is exactly what happened here (the speaker chose a perfectly valid flaw in the typical public perception of guns as the ultimate protection, and the poster failed disastrously to at least soften the blow, if not to turn it around). And that’s not assuming a person of average intelligence will pick up the flaws on his own. How many students walked out of the class thinking the poster was a contriving dumbass? Seriously, some guy flipping out on a group of 3?!

    I don’t think anyone intimated groups of three more but that picking an armed v. unarmed person can be difficult. But alertness and training are key, imo, whether armed or not. I wouldn’t allow someone to get that close to me and if they managed to, I’d be aware of their actions.

  3. rpm Says:

    Absolutely. Both parties failed miserably to take situation awareness into account.

    […] Excellent demonstration. Carnaby Fudge quotes from The High Road about why concealed carry is a deterrent to crime. Go read. (Via Say Uncle) […]

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
