    I can walk about a grocery store and see countless purses (murses) and handbags in the shopping cart, with the shopper's back turned to the cart.

    I just don't believe that everyone here is always in a cat like state of alertness, ready to pounce and kick ass at a moment's notice. Having met many members over the years, I'd bet that is very much the exception and not the rule. I believe most posters are just normal folks like me and not spec ops alums, despite the posts to the contrary.

    If I may speak for Scruff, I believe his point was that no one is always - ALWAYS - on high alert and 100% aware. People easily get used to stuff and complacent. That's why on your 7th day at the beach, the ocean view doesn't seem as magical as it was the 1st day. Heck, there are plenty of guys who got tired of waking up next to Jennifer Aniston; you can't tell me people don't get used to situations and can get a little lax.

    I carry concealed. I was in a checkout line in Tractor Supply in Washington, PA last year and guy in front of me was OC'ing. An older woman behind me poked me and said, "Who needs to carry a gun, that's what the police are for" and I leaned over to her and said, "What makes you think I don't have a gun?".. HAHA - the look on her face was truly priceless. I'm not the first one who has uttered those words, but it's such a great comeback and pretty sure I read it on here a few years ago and been waiting to use the line someday.

    That reminds me of a visit with my mom in Florida. Maybe that's what you remember seeing here? I drove her to Home Depot and as I was putting something in the trunk, she noticed my pistol lock box.

    "What's that?"

    "My pistol lock box."

    "You brought your gun with you on the plane?"

    "Sure."

    "Is that legal?"

    "Yep."

    "Well, what good does it do in the car anyway?"

    "It's not in the car."

    What's the % of adult LTCF holders in PA now - 15%? Too bad people don't know that they're surrounded by guns all of the time.

    I just haz espbergers
    keyboard marine unit 12
    first typing Sgt.

    I do love how people simply assume that everyone around them is disarmed because they don't see a weapon.
    they assume people don't risk it and carry on campus or into NJ/NY
    they ignore that criminals are already armed in both situations and pretend civilians are the threat.

    on one hand I don't want people to expose themselves but on the other I wish people would be able to see just how many are armed around them. to see that literally on a daily basis they interact with someone armed and it is uneventful
    There is no way to make it out alive...

    Exactly, you get into good habits take simple precautions without being neurotic an keep on keeping on.
