> I guess the picture painted of the pro-gun folks is often the extreme end

Glad you got to understand what REAL law-abiding gun owners are like. We are maniacs over safety and responsibility.

Don't let the press demonize such things. The legal ones aren't the ones to worry about.

And everyone I know in Texas who carries in a medium-to-large size city is still doing it concealed. Out of sight, out of mind.
