I mean, I know it's a good idea to have a gun, for you own protection, I think in Mexico it should be allowed too, you know, with some limitations, like getting a licence to carry a gun and stuff like that.

But, what do you have to do to get a licence? It seems to me that it's too easy. With all those shootings and stuff, can really anyone get a licence? Or a gun without it?

Don't flame, just discuss.
Forgive if I'm reading too much into this, but I think you may be asking two seperate questions. Based on the context of the first part of the statement above, you seem to be asking if you need a license to exercise ownership. But you also ask about carrying a gun, which is an entirely seperate entity than just owning a gun. Most of the replies you have received so far are about carrying a firearm on your person, either concealed or open, which has a whole different set of requirements from simply owning a firearm of any sort.
