Saw a show about an english reporter tagging along with some neighborhood watch in the US with zero tolerance against gangs. Everybody had guns, gang members had stashed theirs in abandoned buildings, bushes etc. Shootings were common. The english guy said that when there's a shooting in the UK it's so rare that it is in the news right away. Just like here in NL.
Aaronm, why do you think there is such a huge difference with european countries, that in the US shootings are part of everyday life as opposed to europe?

I dont carry everywhere I go, but do when I go to my office. Its in the city and there has been some issues recently around the area. two years ago I was held up, mugged and jumped by 2 guys about 2 blocks from where my office is (i was wondering up the street for a taxi after a few drinks).
Point being, if someone is coming after me or my family I'm going to protect them.
When I go to the store, mall, etc., I normally keep it in my car, but thats mainly because I have not found something comfortable enough to wear all the time
