Do you carry at home - Why do people feel safe at home?

I do carry at home. I felt safe at home and in my firm until a guy stormed my firm and stabbed an employee repeatedly into the head until the folding knife broke. My buddy survived with big luck and massive surgery.

Before that event I didn't carry at home or at work, but on the way (sounds so ridiculous now). I had the gun(s) in the safe at home, holstered it to get to work, put it into the safe at work and holstered it again for the way home. I felt safe indoors. For NO REASON.

I am safe on the way. Sitting in my strong and fast car, how could a BG hurt me before I run him over or drove away? Now I carry 24/7, of course also when driving - you never know.

By the way, recently we have a problem of organised burglery/robbery-crime taking place deliberately while patrons are home. That makes it easier for the BGs to get the safes etc open by torturing wifes or kids instead of drilling holes into hardened steel. You are not safe indoors. If you carry, carry.
