I think that certain people 'need' to carry the a gun for safety....if you work in law enforcement, and deal with the scum of the earth everyday, a gun can certainly help you out. I mean outside of work.

I also know many military personnel in the US who carry concealed weapons for personal protection, and a few of them have used them to defend themselves. Not to necessarily shoot at someone...but to hold someone at gunpoint until help arrives.

You don't have to shoot people....just as a intruder can hold you at gunpoint, you can detain them as well.
