Well, the old man in Wendy’s DIDN’T see blacks like that, and look where that got him.
The old guy was not aware of his situation, he never saw the black guy coming.
He could have been carrying but was not paying attention to his situation.
I carry and try to always be aware of my surroundings.
Having a gun in your holster does you no good if you get cold cocked because you were not watching all around.
Situational awareness is more important than a pistol that never clears leather.
