What does where I live have to do with anything? I'm not home 24/7. I do go out every day to run errands. Think of every mass shooting that continued until the perp ran out of ammo because there was no one there to stop him. Was Sandy Hook in a bad neighborhood? The movie theatre in Aurora, CO? Remember the nutbag that shot up his gym in Pittsburgh? I gigged in the bar across the street from that gym several times. Not a rough neighborhood at all.
I'm not afraid of getting mugged. I don't look like an easy victim and I am super alert at all times. I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy and they aren't always around. I do feel a little better at my own gym, since there are always cops working out there and they are the only guys allowed to carry gym bags on the floor, which I assume is where their gun is. I guess they're paranoid, eh?
