    Go unarmed then. I don’t actually care what you do. But if carrying a gun gives me a last resort to save my family in bear country, I’m going to train and carry.

    If holding a gun makes you suicidal, homicidal, or if you’re worried you’ll accidentally kill someone, don’t carry or seek training.

    Do what’s responsible for you.

      That gun is still more likely to kill a loved one or a fellow innocent person than it is to save your family, but you don’t care about that because having a big boom stick still makes you feel warm and safe and like you don’t have to worry right?
