I've heard others express the same sentiment and have thought about it myself, but I think it comes down to two basic scenarios: 1) things go along more or less as they are now and you can legally carry a gun for protection; or 2) things go down hill, in which case I think the odds are that you're going to be thankful you've got a CHL and don't have to wait several months to get one. If having one makes you a government target then we'll be well beyond the point of no return as a nation. And you didn't have to have a CHL to get your guns confiscated after Katrina --plus, who knows, maybe in a situation like that you'll stand a better chance of keeping a gun if you have a CHL than if you don't.
