It is my feeling and belief that law abiding, previously tested for crimes, proven to be competent with a handgun citizens, should be allowed to carry with a permit. We know the laws and obey them. If there is a need for self defense it is there. Not to mention, if a law enforcement official were to need assistance, how nice would it be for a trained citizen to be able to support or back him / her up. If there were more law abiding citizens trained with concealed carry permits, I think there would be less crime. Just my opinion. I am for the right to carry . Thank you.  Jay Avery
