== I think non police officers shouldn't be able to carry concealed handguns because they kill innocent people also increases the chances of a handgun used when a person is intoxicated. Anther reason is in some states do not require any hands on training before receiving a concealed gun so public safety should be left to the trained police. ==

== The first reason I am in favor for non police officers not have concealed handguns because they kill innocent people .For example George Zimmerman a guy with a [| concealed gun shot a innocent boy] who was on the phone walking with his hood on and a Arizona ice tea and some skittles because he looked suspicious. Also it will cause people like George Zimmerman to think there hero and look for cases to shoot innocent people for example Zimmerman called the police [|46 times] before shooting Trayvon to show that according to Zimmerman everybody looked suspicious. If people that are not police officers don't carry conceal weapon then innocent people like Trayvon Martin. If people besides police officers stop carrying concealed weapons then it will decrease the chances of innocent people getting killed. ==

== The second reason why I am in favor for non police officers not to have concealed guns because it increases the chances of people using their concealed weapon while intoxicated. For example in 2008 a man name [|Bobby Ray Bordeaux Jr] had a concealed hand gun and a history of alcoholism and suicide attempts. He shot 2 men with a .22 caliber revolver killing one of them during a fight outside a bar while intoxicated. This shows how people while intoxicated can use there conceal weapons. Also if they don't use the weapons the chances of people who are not police officers would decrease a whole lot. ==

== Lastly I think that non police officers should not be able to carry concealed weapons because some states don't receive any hands on training so public- safety should be left to the police. For example every year in the U.S there are around [|600 fatal firearm] accidents and over 15000 emergency room visits due to the accidental gun injuries. Most of the time they could have been avoided does to the insufficient knowledge when it comes to knowing how to handle a gun. Since people don't get any hands on training how are they going to know how handle a gun in the right way. People should leave public safety to police. ==

== Some may say that people should own concealed guns because they feel safer or freer to go outside at night or dangerous areas. This might be true but it’s also a ways to just pick on people or scare people away because you have a gun and are license to shoot them. For example Zimmerman called the police 46 times before he shot Trayvon everybody in his eyes with a [|hoodie] was suspicious. ==

== Others might also say it’s their right to be armed and have same advantages when it comes to protecting them selves from armed attacks. This also might be true because they need to protect themselves in self defense but then in every case its going to be [|self defense] of people are going to paranoid. ==

== In conclusion I believe that people shouldn't have concealed guns except police officers because they kill innocent people, also it increases the chances of handgun used when a person is intoxicated. Another Reason is in some states people do-not receive any hands on training before receiving a concealed gun so public safety should be left to the police. Rates of crimes will decrease. ==
