My daugther carries a gun. How would you feel about it?

I was talking to my 22 year old daughter the other day on the phone when she said "Oh that is odd" I asked her what and she told "there is a man in a car that was here when I came out with the bank bags and now is still here but moved the car. I don't have my gun either." I was like what? She went on to explain she carries a great deal of cash on a daily basis and has a permit to carry a gun. She took the classes and passed with high marks from the state. I am sure she did well but heck she is still my little girl. I asked her if she would really shoot the gun. She said mom if it was to save my life yes I would. She assured me she would not use it just to save the money only if her life was in danger. I asked as most mothers would.. Honey what if you get nervous and shoot yourself in the foot or something. She laughed at me and said mom I am a ace shot and I would not shoot myself but this was one of those things I should not have told you about right? She has learned there are some things a mom just really doesn't want to know (she was always way to honest when growing up*L*) I said well yeah it is probably something I didn't want to know but now it is a bit late. As a sweet daughter she listened to all my concerns and did her best to reassure me that she was ok. We talked while she went inside and locked the door behind her. I guess I have a lot of mixed emotions still about her carrying a gun. I know she lives it the city and we hear everyday about a woman being killed so it is good she can protect herself but it scares me that she carries one. How would you feel if it were your daughter?
