Not that I advocate the use of guns, but when you may work in a crime ridden area, and face the risk of someone coming in with a gun to get their dose of drug money, I have to be ok with having something to counter it. The justification of "that is the law enforcement peoples job" seems so weak as to not have any merit. By that logic, every person should give up their home defense weapons, since it is not their place to protect themselves, and anyways, the bad guys don't MEAN to hurt anyone. I guess the idea of if you didn't go into a Pizza Hut to rob it, you wouldn't be dead, had no place in the discussion...really....this is just so depressing...
