I still say that it will not be so easy to get into a persons home and kill them, but that's okay a difference of opinions is all.

There is no longer a 'defending mysle' excuse by either those who use guns responsibly or those who have dishonerable intent. That's a big difference.

This is true, but what’s one more law to a criminal who is already decided that it’s okay to break the law? All this accomplishes is making breaking and interring and murder easier for those who already don't care about the law. Like I said before they now have even less to fear in going into someone’s home with unlawful intent. I'd like to see the stats concerning the crime rate in Frisco in the next couple of years and see where things go with this.

Any of those jobs has a primary use as saving lives, giving aid, etc. BTW, kif you are in any of those groups, I apprciate that you put your life on the line to help others. Defending the defenceless is a great calling.

I mind not at all. I'm a Marine, and I agree with you that my primary job is to protect and serve the people of my country, state, and community. (In that order, because I can't do the federal marshals job, or the local police. Not to say that I won't happily help if the need comes up.)

Just didn't feel like taking this part out is all. I like the truth of the statement.
