why you carry a gun to the gas station

[SmarterthanYou]

An armed couple got into a gunfight with two suspected robbers, injuring one of them, at a Houston gas station Tuesday.

A woman at the gas station noticed two armed men getting out of separate vehicles around 7 p.m. at a gas station in the 8600 block Fulton Street, Fox Houston reported.

She called her husband, who was inside the store.

As the two suspects attempted to pull an armed robbery, the husband and wife, who were also armed, got into a firefight with them, the report said.

One of the suspects was hit by gunfire and the other fled in a Dodge Charger.

The husband and wife were not harmed.

So taking one incident you project it as an everyday occurrence, fear and paranoia isn't good. No way to live your life

I have gone to gas stations thousands of times and never saw anything like that. I have been a brave man and not carried a weapon to the gas station. I still don't. How must it be to be so afraid of possible problems, that you have to be armed everyplace you go? That must be a scary way to go through life.

I have driven 1000s of miles on a motorcycle I have never been in a wreck but I wear a helmet every time for my safety...guess Im living in fear

I have lived in a house as an adult for 42 years....never had a fire and for the last 30 yrs or so I have always had a fire alarm for my safety ....guess Im living in fear


If there was no seat belt law ...would you use it?

In order for your (and STY) analogy to be valid there would have to be a consistent threat/actual occurrence of robbery or assault at every type of gas station in the USA to warrant a CCWP or CWP (depending on the state).

Clearly, that has NEVER been the case.

But FACTS via insurance companies have proven that there are enough DAILY accidents/near accidents in traffic for the precaution of seat belts. FACTS via insurance companies have shown the risk of motorcycle falls and impact accidents warrant a helmet. FACTS via insurance companies SUGGEST that home owners have extinguishers present and or fire alarms.

So your response does not bear up under examination.

Stop acting silly, will ya please? God help us all if more yahoos like you get the legal go ahead to walk around strapped 24/7, going across state lines as such. Another Wild West we don't need.

do you have any fire extinguishers in your home or car? or do you just live free and not worry about it?

it's called being prepared. but maybe you're ok with the 'if I die, I die' mantra.........let's hope your family is too.

and another idiot who lives life by the odds speaks up.

The one day you morons find yourselves in a situation where a gun in your possession COULD have saved your life, but you didn't have one so now you're dead, you consider it a life of freedom because you just didn't worry about it? that's called blissful ignorance.
