If such a law were passed/instituted, I'm quite certain I would leave the country.

It's a very scary thought to me. I see angry people every day, and if they had guns, they would use them. And I am excluding drivers and their road rage.

Give an angry person a gun and they will kill people. Without one, they might get into a fistfight or draw a knife, but at least the aspect of physical combat will defray some confrontations, and also present a more even playing field for the people involved if a situation does turn to blows.

I don't like guns, am not comfortable around them, and consider the notion of people carrying concealed firearms around in society very frightening.

For me it has nothing to do with statistics for or against concealed weapons. I live in a society filled with impatient and angry citizens, and the notion of giving them the means to kill instantly from a distance terrifies me.
