"So the mugger grabs you from behind and pins your arms back, then what? Now you have to get both arms free rather than one."
What if the mugger doesn't get that close and just shoots me in the back of the head? There's always a what if. Quite frankly, I'm almost never in a situation where a mugger is likely to get close enough to me to grab me from behind. That's just not my lifestyle.
I don't carry on the street at all. I carry in my place of business, and that's it. I don't go places that are likely to produce a mugging. I don't live in a large city, either. I've reduced my risks to an acceptable level.
Wanta know the number of homicides in my community in the past 5 years? Zero. Wanta know the number of people injured in shootings in the same period. Six, and all were domestic.
There's more than one way to skin a cat.

That's just not my lifestyle. Apparently walking down the street is not in your repertoire. Well I guess if you do not carry in these other situations then you are not qualified to critcize those that do about whether they should have a round chambered or not.

What does this have to do with anything?
