60. Your generalization goes pretty far.
"Personally, I believe that everyone has the right to defend themselves with the most effective tools available, so my answer would be 'all of the above'. That would include criminals and the insane?
I am all for legal, responsible and well trained citizens to be able to carry a registered concealed handgun. Now people will come out of the woodwork to disagree with me. Yet, my position allows for the protection offered by a handgun to all of the above people that are not criminals or deemed insane. You leave out the one thing that is the cause of most violent gun crime. It is not the legal person with the handgun, it is the illegal ones.
