Good points, Dick, but concealed carry didn't help in Georgia.  Apparently,
no one nearby exercised their "privilege".  We need to make people
understand that gun owners are good, tax-paying, law-abiding citizens.  That
we are their next door neighbors, and that our hobby and interest is not
dangerous no matter what Dan Rather said on what I laughingly refer to as
"the news".

To be incapable of committing mayhem is not the mark of the civilized,
merely the domesticated."
