^ Thanks yes, i understand and agree, mostly. I am also not "anti-gun", i can handle a few and also admire craftmanship. It just makes me feel uneasy to see those weapons in civilian life in the hands of people i would call .."unprofessional" for lack of a better word

Sounds reasonable. So carry a weapon as an emergency means to deal with (hopefully rare) "maniac situations". If all people behave reasonable that may work. But when i look at the US and headlines i doubt the reason in some.
Good ideas anyway

And maybe i indeed misunderstood August here.
