I grew up around guns, and also worked and/or volunteered in several public safety/fire/law enforcement roles. I worked private security/PPO for a while and was used to having one with me when I was working, so I got to where I always wanted to have one. Been carrying ever since, at least always having one in the car.

However, the last year or so the state of the country has had me on heightened alert. I was not always faithful about carrying at all times. But with the way things are going these days, I don't even take the dog out or check the mail without one.
