Very wrong, you just need to dress properly for CCW. The
are many fine handguns that can be effective for defense and
are small enough to carry hidden in any number of holsters,
bras, fanny-packs, purses, brief cases, garter belts, boots,
headset bags, computer cases, PDA cases. I agree about
people knowing who owns guns, since the American Revolution
started because the British decided to confiscate the arms
the colonists had in the keeping. That event was the spark
that started the war and resulted in the Second Amendment.
But if you go into any home in Texas, the odds are you'll
find a gun are better than 50-50. If you have a gun, keep
it close at hand, if you leave it home it can be stolen or
found by a child, carried securely on your person and it is
safe and so are you.
