...avoid pointless confrontation when you are carrying. I've had to do it and it sucks, but that's the choice when we take on the huge responsibility of carrying.
Might even be a good idea to let that habit spill out into those times when you aren't carrying, too. Hate to get stabbed, shot, or beaten to death when unarmed nearly as much as I'd hate to have that happen if I was armed.
