You got guns in your house??

A U.S. citizen friend of mine who grew up in Canada got a doctorate in some kind of nursing and took a job at a town in Arizona. They liked her and vice versa, and as they finalized the hiring, one of the doctors asked her if she carried.

She didn't know what he meant so he explained that many people in the town carried concealed handguns, including most of the doctors and nurses, and she needed to be aware of that environment. Sweet little Canadian girl was shocked, and more so her first day when a grey haired pillar of the community kind of gentleman patient took off his pistol as he disrobed. She asked one of the doctors to help her pick a handgun and get some training. Last I heard she carried and you would not want to mess with her.

That's a great story!! I think we should all carry and it be like the old west. Someone steels your property they pay with there life! It wouldnt take long before robbery was a thing of the past.
With all the free hand outs we've got now there no reason for someone to have to steal anything.

Good point!

That sounds about right Clyde. Arizona has always been a carry state and practically everyone does. Its about as close to the "Old West" as you'll get. I believe you can take a gun anywhere in that state.

"I believe you can take a gun anywhere in that state." Yes you can and most of us do.

My VA clinic sent a questionnaire that they had gun locks and would I like some, UP top 4. All my foolish friends said don't send back you want any it is a ploy to know if you have guns. I sent it back and got 4 cable locks.
Every gun I have ever bought I had to fill out paper work on. Unless they lost that stuff they know about every one I own.

Where some state's CCW license only covers firearms, in Kentucky, the CCDW license covers:

A weapon of mass destruction
Any weapon from which a shot, readily capable of producing death or other serious physical injury, may be discharged;
Any knife other than an ordinary pocket knife or hunting knife;
Billy, nightstick, or club;
Blackjack or slapjack;
Nunchaku karate sticks;
Shuriken or death star; or
Artificial knuckles made from metal, plastic, or other similar hard material.

Kinda neat, huh?

Yep. Those words came straight from the statute.
