(256 posts)You don't have to be a gun owner to have a license to carry a concealed weapon. It's not against the law to own a gun. If you live in rural Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, and I'm sure in most states rural areas, you don't have a police force. You MIGHT have a sheriff, or a constable who covers a sizable area. It could take hours for them to respond to a call. Seriously, those of you who rail against owning guns for ones own protection....you really DON'T have a clue obviously. Just my opinion. The extremist Tea Partyers of the left are as much of a detriment to the Democratic party as the the Tea Party has been to the Republican party. I do not think a majority of Americans seriously support a total gun ban, or repealing the 2nd Amendment. I'm a lifelong Democrat. I do not.
