| 19. You are obviously correct. |
|
A firearm concealed on the person is no less a tool than a fire extinguisher carried in a car.
The firearm is intended to protect the person, the extinguisher to protect the car. To call either a "fetish" is just one example of a stereotype.
It is possible to have a fire extinguisher fetish; it is possible to have a gun fetish. But to assume that a concealed weapon carried on the person necessarily indicates a gun fetish is prejudice and ignorance.
Another thing hunters and concealed carriers of weapons have in common is self reliance.
