I'm Afraid!

So whines Lynda Panties-In-a-Waddington. [More]

Since when are my rights determined by some ignorant emotional defective's neuroses?

"He could be an undercover cop! He could be a stalker! He could be any of a million things!"

But apparently, the one thing he absolutely cannot be is an honest citizen carrying for his protection if HE'S accosted by one of her "million things".

I'd say SHE'S the paranoid here.

And no, her discomfort is of no relevance to me.

Seems to me that she needs some cheese to go with that whine!

A very useful article to read -- to understand what drives them to the reaches on insanity.

Agoraphobia, as she has no control of the people she encounters in public, and fears the danger they may present.

Did she commit a misdemeanor by pulling her purse in front and tapping the bulge? Is that possibly brandishing? Even without possessing a weapon.

So a guy who she THINKS is carrying a gun is in a bookstore that has a sign on the door saying no guns.

Here are the two logically most probable options:

He's an undercover cop staking out the place for some reason.

He’s a criminal who doesn’t care about rules, in which case he probably doesn’t care about the licensing rules, either.

Either way, her problem with this guy is not going to be altered one iota by changing the state’s “broken” rules about training the licensed citizen. And unless she starts carrying herself (in which case she wouldn’t be in that bookstore, yes?), she’s not going to be protected from the dirtbags, no matter what the rules say.

In the Dark Ages, people believed that magic word spells could keep them safe. It’s amazing how many people still do.,
