Ones which you elaborated on. Thus, my reply to that.

"I bet several posting gun owners on DU carry 2 concealed guns on them on occasion, one in shoulder holster, one in ankle holster. Some even more, a small derringer in a belt buckle perhaps, as well as a pocket knife or two. Are these people mass murderers in waiting?"

Yes, if their intent is to go into a populated area, and start shooting at everybody for no good reason. I carry 1 myself, when I carry. And 1 pocket knife.

Stay. Stay.
