Don't disagree...But the odds are on my side...

Let's be realistic...I can't take my pistol into work, so should I go through the trouble of packing it for a 20 minute drive through very safe neighborhoods to lock it in my car, and carry back home again? I really don't see the need...
My wife and I go out to eat often...and we love our craft beers...should I be carrying a gun while drinking?...Don't think so...
I visit my Mother at her senior care facility, no carry allowed, so should I break the law? Don't think so...
I carry when we go out on the bike, far away, in very remote areas...so far, that's the only time I've felt a need...

Just sayin'...Honestly, I have different issues with carrying on the bike, but I will start a different thread about that.

Carjackers..........let that sink in for a moment.



Where exactly, do you think they prefer to find their victims, the ghetto or the "nice neighborhoods" and business districts. Your thought on this matter is severely flawed. Crime does not brake for convenience.

For all of you that live in IL, did you already apply for your ccw or did you receive yours?
I recently applied in the beginning of june and cant wait til it arrives.
Any advise on carrying full size?

What are they thinking the wait times is/was?
Recently moved to Marine, will be getting mine once we establish residency, get a drivers license and obtain a FOID.

Never been a worry of mine. Very rare occurrence around these parts. And most of the ones you see in the news, are in the poor/dangerous neighborhoods.
Don't get me wrong, I fully support the right for any honest citizen to carry a gun. But after 58 years of never feeling the need to carry, it's hard to turn that need on just because I can carry.

Hope you never end up in a situation where you need one.

My philosophy, it is better to have it and not use it, than need it and not have it.
