At this point in our country's history, if you aren't armed, you either not paying attention or you're a koolaid-drinking Socialist. Being armed and prepared is your civic duty as an American. It's not a privilege like driving. It's a right purchased by the blood of our beloved framers and men and women in uniform.

You shouldn't have to go to the Sheriff to get a license to carry what our Constitution says you already have the right to keep and bear. Good enough to quote with nothing but a +1 to add to it.
Proper mindset is first and foremost. That is probably the most difficult to obtain, maintain and to keep balanced. Paranoia occurs when you become unbalanced. The world and it's occupants may or may not be threats.
Keep to the 'middle of the road' and don't overreact or underreact. I think it was Sun Tzu who write that the man who knows both himself and his enemy cannot be defeated. I recall being robbed by two guys with a machete and my main thought was denial,'This CAN'T be happening!' That kind of 'brain fart' can be fatal.That was a valuable lesson for me.

Excellently put. Lets see if I understand this correctly. Are you paranoid or prepared?
The state of the economy is a complete disaster from East to West and hasn't been this bad since the Great Depression with people out of work doing what they must to survive and that includes being desperate. You live in Fresno Calif where the Bangers, for the most part, rule the roost. The DEA sent me to Bakersfield and Fresno for practical Drug Influence Recognition Certification because it was the garden spot of Calif? I call it being realistic and prepared. Even if there was some paranoia involved who could fault that? You live in Fresno-I'm originally from there so I know what it's like-you have about 6,000 Bulldogs(a latino gang to those who have never heard of them) not to mention various other gangs.
You have every right to be concerned and to be prepared. Your 'friend' is the nutty one. I read these posts earlier then about 20 minutes after I read them a show came on on Spike TV about the Bulldogs in Fresno. I got to watch all but the last 15 minutes of it.
Just thought that was something, reading about it then it coming on TV. Hey Everyone, Dont bite my head off, I just asked the question and wanted to know your opinions, which i value very highly. I completely agree that is why i have been looking for the gun to start my ccw for the past 4 months and just picked up my SR9c, and made my appointment for my initial interview and cant get it until August 2011, then it takes 90 days to get the pre-approval back. I intend to go all the way and start carrying full time except when i cant take it to work.
Im practicing carrying at home, and shooting as much as i can so i will be ready, also going to take a non ccw shooting class before August to improve myself. Today in the editorials of the Fresno Bee there was a letter about how guns kill people and we need to get the guns out our country and we can all be safe.
Im now composing a letter in rebuttal because I have never seen a gun load itself, walk down the street and find somebody to kill. If you know of one of these guns please tell me so i can hide. Until now i always felt safe because i lived out in the country and the BG never came out here and if they did i have my home defense pistol and shotgun waiting to start the party. The economy is in the toilet, crime is going up, car thefts and carjackings are up and its now taking 7 months to get an apointment because the CCW committe at the Sheriffs Dept is swamped because Sheriff Mims is giving out the permits to anyone with Good Cause. Im not paranoid, just prepared and very level headed. Thanks for the comments everyone. Hey MaverickRV, I think it is a great thread.
Many of the folks here are new to the whole concept of ' carrying'. Many too have questions and uncertainties as well. Face it, the 'art of carrying' is not something we were taught as youngsters. In most cases our parents did not teach us the necessary living skills that we should possess today due to what life has evolved into. It is good that folks can ask questions, pose thoughts, and get feedback in the way of various opinions.
Keep up the good work.
