Most of this has been said in forms above. My take, just 3... okay...

1. No one needs to know you have a license, or when you have chosen to carry or not.
2. If the weapon comes out (huge decision, and a serious line must have been crossed), it goes in to its intended use immediately. No chatting, no 'stop or I will shoot.' Stop the threat.
3. 99% of the time, property crime is not worth it unless life are limb are at risk also. Exceptions might include your home (preventing arson), and protecting family heirlooms, high value uninsured items (could include weapons), irreplaceable photos and such, computers with intellectual property or sensitive information, etc. Review Joe Horn case periodically and decide if you want to have your life turned upside down. Sorry if I ruffled the feathers of any Joe Horn fans. IMHO he could have made much better decisions (including his choice to be chatty).
