I am a LA resident and I consider myself a pro-gun person. I own guns, shoot guns, buy/sell guns, OC sometimes, CC sometimes.
To me a gun can be a tool and/or a toy. A gun can be used to do a job or for recreation, or both. A gun can give me more confidence in certain situations. I appreciate the opportunity to OC and consider it a privilege. OC for me is about being able to carry a defensive tool.
The comments of some on this forum lead me to believe that for them OC is about ego. They don't see themselves as an individual who helps make up a society. They see society as something that works against them. They come off as paranoid, inflammatory, anti-government, and anti-social. It is all about them. They don't want to work to make society better. They want to complain about how society treats them. These kinds of people are bad for gun rights. It is these kinds of people who will say and do things that will have a negative effect on gun rights.
