I am a college educated, white, 31 year old male that owns a business. I carry a concealed gun at all times, 9mm Tangfoglio with a 17 round clip to be exact . I have a concealed carry license. I have never shot any one, or at any one, nor have I ever robbed any one.

I started carrying after I was robbed around 10 years ago by a criminal who raided my house at 3 am and held me hostage for roughly 2 hours. I did not have a gun, he did. The police caught him, he is still serving his 30 year sentence. But they never recovered any of my possessions.

Since I have started carrying I have not been robbed once. There have been a few mugging attempts and car jacking attempts, even still a few home invasion attempts, but they have all been warded off by the fact that I carry a gun. Fact is, I did not even have to point my gun in the assailants direction. They have all turned and ran when they saw me reaching for it. I would not like to know where I would be right now had I not had a concealed weapon.

I can not vote for or support any politician that supports revoking concealed carry licenses. Nor should any one. The ability to defend ones self and property is a necessity.
