[QUOTE="okienate, post: 721040, member: 2897"] I wouldn't let them off easy with a simple email. Even if you've already sent one, I really believe this discussion needs to be real time. (Eyeball to eyeball if you really care for and respect them, over the phone otherwise.) If they don't want you packing in their house, they have a right to their opinion, but I think everyone should get the benefit of hearing the honest-to-God merits of having the comfort of someone able to help defend them. I've been lucky in that every male in my nuclear and semi-extended family has a CCL in the state where they live. We all grew up shooting and when one of the ladies married into a "non-shooting" family, well let's just say we helped remedy the situation..... To me, folks who send email/PM's of challenges/concerns are incredibly insecure with their position and are trying to avoid a real conversation. I say, don't let them off with such a passive, weak form of communication. (But that is my .02 worth. If you think they aren't mature enough for real communication and that this would escalate, then avoid the direct communication and stick with the electronic exchange.....) FWIW [/QUOTE]
