Several months ago I participated in the thread regarding carrying during ones wedding. It seemed odd to me unless the groom needed to be able to shoot his way out if he got cold feet.
In all seriousness, several posters made it sound like they carried every minute of every day. So I threw out a few situations where they couldn't or wouldn't due to practicality, or it being prohibited. Some of the responses seemed a little , but I dropped the subject so as to not derail the threads theme. Now that it has popped back up, I decided to start a thread about when to carry, and when not to.
I'll start the discussion off by bringing up several examples where it would be against the law, or impractical. If you disagree, let me know why and how you would deal with such a scenario.
So for those who feel compelled to carry at all times, what do you do when you go to places like the beach?
What about at the birth of your child in a hospital for instance?
BTW - Someone asked if I carry, and the answer is yes. However I do not carry all the time, and typically assess the likelihood of needing to be armed before I choose which weapon(if any) to take with me.
