If I had a dollar for every gun carried by judges into courtrooms around the country and carried by the special people onto commercial aircraft, I would retire a wealthy man.

Despite my title at work, I do not believe I am any more special than any other law abiding citizen. IMO, if I get to have a gun, then they should get to have a gun too. If the SHTF, I like my odds knowing that there are a whole lot more good guys with guns than bad guys with guns. Besides, the Giffords shooting in AZ is a great study in how few people will actually pull the trigger even when they have the opportunity.

I don't believe the average citizen is as stupid as the media would have you believe.

I'll give you judges for sure. I would have no problem with them packing. Actually I think it's a great idea.

I'm well aware of who and how many people carry guns on planes. It ain't that many.

I completely disagree with your comment on the average citizen. Especially at the airport. Go stand by a gate for half an hour and listen to the stupid shit people ask the gate agents. I can assure you that you will have less faith in humanity. Perhaps even feel a little dumber for having done it. It really is that bad.
