Saturday was an intense interesting day. I completed the class necessary to be eligible for a permit to carry a concealed firearm. The intensity was due to the instructor's emphasis on all of the responsibilities you assume when you make the decision to carry that weapon. The responsibility of your life, someone else's life and the legal abbess resulting from an event. The fact that, once you make a decision to protect, you must present the weapon and fire in a split second. Failure to react correctly would probably result in loss of your life and the lives of others in proximity. Am I ready to assume that responsibility? I have not answered that question. Will I complete the process for the permit? Yes. Will I carry concealed? Probably.
Will I ever use the weapon defensively? I pray that I won't have to!
