Wiley Clapp is always worth reading. The dude has solid creds.
As for me, I am vehemently anti-gun because all guns are icky-bad tools of Satan. I don't own any guns; I just pretend that I do so I can hang with some very cool folks.
When the seasonal forecast is for fair conditions with only a chance of an isolated outbreak of murder and mayhem I usually pretend that I am carrying a brace of airweight S&W J-frame .38 revolvers, one in a shoulder holster and one in the side pocket. I also usually pretend to carry at least one reload.
