Personally I've had a gun pulled on me. Since that time I carry all the time, be it open, or concealed, everywhere legal to do so. To me my pistol is nothing more than another tool, like my knife. The only difference is it's the one tool I pray I will never need to use.

That said, if you've ever watched the news, you'll see that the majority of people who are involved in a crime, as the victim, have never felt like it would happen to them either. Thing is, anything can happen to anybody, any time, anywhere. Further, in my case, I often work alone, anywhere from a bad part of town, to miles out in the country, on pipeline right of ways, etc. Given that my service truck, and all my tools easily hit the $150,000 mark, it wouldn't take anything for me to be robbed.....except for the fact I am armed. With that in mind, how many armored car companies are going to drive around with $150,000 dollars without an armed guard?

To put things in a different light, I've only had one flat tire, on a personal vehicle, in more than 30 years of driving. Even so, every vehicle I have has a spare tire. I've got tools on my service truck that have been riding around for nearly 20 years, and haven't been used but once or twice.

To compare either scenario to carrying a weapon, the thought process is the same. 'Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.'
