I know you didn’t, you stated there’s no reason for him to have taken his firearm to the mall when it really doesn’t matter IF he had a proper CC permit with no restrictions.

Let me put it to you in my perspective. Lets say I have an URCC permit and go to a range in syracuse with a friend. On the return trip we have to stop for fuel at a station, and we decide to grab some lunch at a local diner. In my mind, the only place your handgun belongs is either _locked up in your gun safe at your home or on your persons at all times_. Say I left my firearm in the glovebox and while eating lunch and some asshat jacks my car. Now he has much car and my gun. It puts me at risk, and now puts another illegal handgun into the market to be potentially used in a crime and ultimately hurt us(civilian gun owners) when lawmakers and the uneducated public eye come down on us. Instead i exercise my right to carry my firearm concealed on my persons where I know it’s secure.

If you cannot logically understand that, then you and I are on completely different wavelengths when it comes to proper gun ownership.
