yep

gave my shotguns to my brother and a best friend years ago. my hand gun to my brother in law a few months back

i do not have the temperment to carry. which is why i finally decided against obtaining a concealed carry permit

if i carried a firearm, i am afraid i would fire it during some idiot encounter in the heat of the moment. as a sports official, these are not infrequent events. i also go out clubbing quite a bit to listen to live music

incidents like this cause me to wonder:
Adrian Cosby and George Walton, both 19, were arrested on Sunday for killing Andrea Camps Lacayo, 18.

Police say Ms Camps and her boyfriend had arranged to meet the suspects last week to sell three pairs of shoes for $935 (£747) when she was shot.

i buy and sell quite a bit of high end musical equipment/instruments. the above tragedy does cause me to wonder whether i should be armed during my meetings with prospective buyers and sellers, so i am instead quite particular about where and when meetups occur and try to get phone/information from/about my other party prior to our get together

a lot of folks, especially independent contractors who are ineligible for bridge loans or other bail out monies, are desperate ... or soon will be. we may be in for some perilous times. i do understand why gun sales are currently strong

Thank you for this.

A man has to know his limitations. You have identified a concern and have taken steps to address it.

Kudos.

Why do you wish to disparage him if he believes in God?

Because:

1. I don't believe he does, it was just a smart comment

2. If he did, he needs to be "disparaged"

3. If "disparage' means to criticize, what does "parage" mean ?
 
=Rich2018;1071680823]Because:

1. It is easier to buy a gun if you already have a CCW

2. To avoid any possible problems with transporting firearms.

It sounds like what you are saying is-flash- a ccw and no 4473
Maybe GA is different, but even in the blue state of OR you don't need a ccw to transport a firearm.

Do you believe convicted felons should be able to purchase and own firearms?
