I just got my CCW last week. I do not live in a dangerous area. I thought I would only carry when I was going somewhere that would justify it. I actually feel a little uncomfortable carrying, in the sense that I view people that carry as a bit paranoid.
However, one of the arguments in favor of citizens carrying weapons is that they have the capability to prevent violent crimes. I believe and made this argument. The argument fails, if citizens choose not to carry their guns. A gun in a safe at home will do no good. Since I have no idea if or when I may need to defend myself or others, it makes sense that I carry as often as is practical.
