Comedian Robbed at Gunpoint Shifts Views on Firearms, Wants Concealed Carry Permit

Comedian Tim Young was robbed at gunpoint in Washington, DC,on January 17 and he emerged from the incident determined to get a concealed carry permit so he does not have to feel such defenselessness again. Young was robbed on M Street around 7:45 p.m. The suspects made off with his cell phone.

WUSA9 reports that Young grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, and, until being robbed in D.C., never saw the need to get a gun, much less carry one. He indicated that “he’s been in some bad places in his life and nothing happened to him [in those places] … [so] he assumed things would continue to go that way.”

I don't get the punch line.

Nothing bad ever happened so I figured nothing bad ever will. Must've been a nice bubble to live in.

I have never needed a seat belt before. That's why I don't wear one today.

Want to bet he still doesn't believe people living/working in that "bad place" should have their own gun?

You hit the nail on the head .... only "special" people should be allowed. The folks that live there don't need protections. Sigh.

from the article...

“I think a lot of those people who are opposed to having a conceal carry permit and being able to own a weapon have never had one pointed directly at them when they have nothing on them.”

so he probably figured it out pretty quick. the question is if he is really going to think it through and apply it in a broader sense, i.e. who to vote for.

For the most part, no. But something to think about, while he may continue to support liberal politicians he can now say don't take my gun away.
