[QUOTE="Ethan N, post: 3212583, member: 29267"] I also have been a little concerned that some people will start carrying rifles just to make a scene and be noticed. Idiots love posting stuff like that on YouTube to make themselves feel important. But, despite it being an inappropriate thing to do under ordinary circumstances, I’m also thankful that carrying long guns will be legal because there are situations where it makes sense. Think aftermath of major natural disasters where looting is a significant concern. It’s helpful in a situation like that, when law enforcement is stretched thin, to have a highly visible firearm presence to send a message that may help deter lawlessness. I think we’ll be better off having the option of carrying long guns when the rare need for it arises. Now that I think of it, another legitimate reason to carry a rifle/shotgun is if that’s the only firearm someone has and they can’t afford anything else. It may not be ideal, but no one should be denied the use of whatever protection is within their financial means. [/QUOTE]
