Well the general theory is that carrying does indeed make you safer, in fact it makes everybody safer due to the greater chance of encountering an armed victim.

If bad guys are coming after you they area going to mug you whether you have a concealed pistol or not

Well, sure.

The question is one of what is most likely to happen when they do.

As noted there are a lot of folks who care. The real question are they fully prepared to use it?

If you have to think............ your not!
