We all need to be careful these days. Something as simple as filling your gas tank can turn tragic or deadly. I wish a speedy recovery for the Porsche driver. All the more reason to be prepared and "protect yourself" when required!

Glad I live in VA where I can decide if I want to be an easy victim or NOT! Thank goodness for the CWP.
Glad the perp will not be doing this again and I hope for a full recovery for the victim.

I know that area. It's not a terribly violent one in the least. If they would have said Langley Park, then I would have raised an eyebrow.
As the holidays get closer, crime always spikes. Especially in a recession.

No government should have the right to tell me the method in which I can defend my life when under harm with intent of deadly injury.

I was interested in that, til I read all the HR822 subprovisions for local LE to be able to verify if you have a CWP in your state of choice.... = National Biometric database of CWP holders. No thanks.
