I don’t think the police have released all the details but yes it was reported a shoving match happened before someone pulled a gun out.
Like I said, I don’t go to bars downtown. I try to stay as far from trouble as possible, ((((Especially since I carry about all the time)))). My original comment was tongue in cheek but you can hardly say anything in today’s world without it getting political or someone getting offended. I’m not saying that’s what you’re doing but it feels like that’s the direction Celtic was going.
As a side note, I grew up hunting almost any time I wanted. I’m not a huge gun guy but I do love hunting, especially bow hunting. The world is what it is. I never gave a lot of thought about carrying until I had kids. I stay away from known risky environments. Having kids, I don’t ever want to be in a situation where I wished I had my gun and didn’t.
Unfortunately avoiding high risk places isn’t enough. Theatres, concerts, or just walking down a side walk can be targeted. I don’t live my life in fear of these things but I’m as prepared as the law permits and I stay aware.
How often have you needed to defend your family with said gun? Do you carry a glass breaker in your vehicle? I'm from the sticks in IL...Guess how many times I've needed a firearm in StL or anywhere?
The largest contributors to firearm crime prevention are what essentially amount to being exposure.
(or decreasing the amount and types of guns held by citizens)
