However, when you say "everyone", you are including the robber, murderer, rapist, and kidnapper as walking around with a loaded weapon. Heck, most of them do that anyways. Now, if everyone else did, they would have to upgrade to outdo the everyday joe. Escalation! Police wear bullet proof vests, criminals fire armor piercing rounds.... wasn't that in some movie?

In Michigan you only need to take a class and not have any felonies on your record (not sure about misdemeanors) to get a concealed weapon permit. Even then there are some restrictions as to where you can carry a gun. Airports, courthouses, schools, etc. are still off limits.

I unfortunately find that a majority of the people I know with "concealed carry" licenses, have them, and their guns, because they think it is cool. These are the kind of people who when something crazy goes on, they end up getting themselves, or other innocent people shot. For the record, I have a license to carry a concealed weapon, but I dont carry one, because I dont think we have to worry about "Ze Germanz" invading (Not trying to offend german's, i have plenty of german heritage myself). BTW, can anyone name what move that is from?

If you are serious, you should look up the numbers on handgun related deaths in US v.s. some other countries like Great Britain where it is illegal to have handguns. No, im not a proponenet for gun control, I own guns, i like my guns, but I dont believe there use is for a brutal, bloody offense. Nevertheless, numbers like that make me weary of ideas to, arm up citizens for personal protection. Just me.
