Loaded guns are fine in most places as long as responsible adults are the ones carrying them, LAWFULLY, as demonstrated by the various background checks and permits that we already have in place. This isn't even up for debate. The constitution is clear.
You can have a gun on a goat
You can have a gun in a boat
You can have a gun in your house
You can have a gun near a mouse
You can have a gun inside your den
You can have a gun to anger a dem

Earlier this week we asked SodaHeads what they thought about keeping a loaded gun in the car, and the results are in.
SodaHeads overwhelmingly decided that keeping a loaded gun in the car should be your legal right, and that majority spanned across a huge range of demographics. However, there were still a few statistics that stood out to us.
For instance, ever wonder what exactly the difference between a "liberal" and "progressive" is? Looking at their responses to this question, liberals are far more likely to concede gun control than progressives. In fact, liberals were markedly in support of allowing loaded guns in cars.
The original question was tied to a recent incident involving a clumsy gun-owner on a Tennessee highway who accidentally shot himself, but that didn't deter votes in the least.

(For clarity's sake, we counted "only in the trunk" responses as a yes.)

Get out there and take a gun class, get a permit and carry-EVERYWHERE.
If a mugger has a gun on you, what do you think your odds are of drawing and firing before they just shoot you?
Both examples are completely absurd reasons to think carrying a gun might save you from anything.
Statistically speaking, the #1 target of guns is the gun owner. Literally more people are shot by their own gun than someone else's. Yes, this includes suicide, accidents and intentional shootings but it's still a fact.
Anyone comes into my house uninvited,FIRST they have to get by the dogs THEN get by me(assuming I'm home...then just the dogs).
Letting a mugger (RARE doewn here) know you are armed as well, let's him know he has a fifty, fifty shot at injury for his effort.
Carrying is empowering, you KNOW you will not be a victim again. THAT means the world to a woman who has been powerless against a stronger person.
So what was the breakdown for conservatives, libertarians, and mixed economy lovers?
