Wow, in her case, I suppose justice really must have been blind

The person who wrote this used to be a criminal prosecutor:

I am staunchly opposed to concealed carry because,  in my opinion, only overly suspicious or dangerous people feel the need to carry concealed guns in the normal course of daily life.

1. As a prosecutor, I would think she probably saw plenty of cases where the victim hadn’t been suspicious enough.
2. As a prosecutor, I would think she had plenty of cases where the criminal had been illegally carrying a weapon. The lack of a concealed carry permit hadn’t dissuaded the “dangerous people” from carrying a gun anyhow.
3. As a citizen, it scares the hell out of me that a former prosecutor feels her personal opinion trumps my Constitutional and natural right to defend myself from the sort of people she used to spend all day putting in jail.
