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.

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.

What does this have to do with anything?

Actually, I am qualified to do that. In fact, I have done it already.

Risk assessment. That's simple. The risk of being attacked on the street in my community is vanishly small. So, I don't carry on the street. Why would I bother?
