Unfortunately, conceal and carry permits are now available in missouri. So every idiot that can come up with $200 is walking around with a hand gun.
It makes me nervous to see someone even wearing a firearm, forcing me to carry one myself.
This is bad because simple confrontations that would of ended in bruises can now end in death. I don't support the conceal and carry laws, but feel unsafe without one now because of it..
Just two weeks ago in St. Louis a couple was sitting in the drive-thru line at a taco bell. Two men got in their back seat, pulled guns and tried to rob the couple... BUT they didn't count on the fact that the driver had a concealed handgun. The driver shot one in the face and the other in the chest. I'd rather myself and my family be alive because of my concealed weapon than dead because I was unprepared. Also it makes it so that the criminals just can't be sure that they will walk away from their crimes..
