    Why do they have to make a huge spectacle that a man is moving from one place to another. This is not very important news and will not effect things at all.
    Stuff that matters. *rolls eyes*

    Is that supposed to be a good thing? I wouldn't think so.

    You wouldn't think so, but you'd be wrong. Of course there are problems with weapons that were concealed illegally, but _none_ with weapons concealed on people legally (that is, with a permit). None. Get over it, get a gun, get trained, and one day drill a criminal. You'd be doing society a favor.
