I'm not a supporter of Concealed Carry Laws, but I don't understand your point, 3894. Certainly if a gun is not needed to grab a slice, it's also not needed to catch a movie.

Except of course, when it is.



Supporters of concealed carry point out that an armed citizenry is a safe citizenry, and there's a certain insane logic in that (would a crazed gunman shoot up a movie theater if the law of averages says 10% of the audience would be armed?)

Of course, there's the recent Harvard study that shows a distinct correlation between states with lax gun laws and states with higher rates of suicide and homicide.

There are some decent arguments on both sides of the issue, but it's going to be pretty hard from now on to say you don't need to be armed to go about your daily consumer business.
