Is this a story for or against gun control?

A Texas Department of Safety Officer pulled over a pick-up truck owner for a faulty taillight.

When the officer approached the driver, the man behind the wheel handed the officer his driver's license, insurance card and a concealed weapon carry permit.  The officer took all the documents, looked them over and said.

"Mr. Smith, I see you have a CWCP. Do you have any weapons with you?"  The driver replied,

" Yes sir, I have a 357 handgun in a hip holster, a .45 in the glove box and a .22 derringer in my boot." The officer looked at the driver and asked,

"Anything else?"  

"Yes sir, I have a Mossberg 500 12 gauge and an AR-15 behind the seat." The officer asked if the man was driving to or from a shooting range and the man said he wasn't, so the officer bent over and looked into the driver's face and said

"Mr. Smith, you're carrying quite a few weapons. May I ask what you are afraid of?  Mr. Smith locked eyes with the officer and calmly answered,

"Not a damn thing!"

I'd like to be armed, I'd feel safer though not everyone can be trusted with such things. It's tough... it cab be misused.

The story is against gun control because if we had gun control, then we wouldn't have such funny stories to tell ;)

Lulz, such a basic principle. Guns make us feel safer because they make us safer. I'd feel a lot safer from people attacking me if I was well armed.

Side: Against

the 2nd amendment states, "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Which means gun control is unconstitutional.
