If I am not at work I am armed. I try to avoid the hugging when possible. Though at church one of my friends (female) hugs me every Sunday. Not long ago she hugged me and felt the butt of the H & K. She looked at me like what the ???? I asked her how long have you known me? she replied 5 years.. I let her know that everytime she has ever seen me I was armed, why should she be surprised? Now when she hugs me she avoids touching my right side!
I believe in carrying at all times legally possible. The odds are you will never have to use it. But as they say in the insurance business, it is better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it.
In todays world you should be armed at all times. The incident in Maryville, IL proves that, the car jackings we see everyday on the news proves that, the home invasions we see everyday proves that. Anyone that believes it can't happen to them is nothing more than a victim in waiting. As well has your pistol you should be carrying less than lethal items as well. I carry pepper spray and a stun gun disguised as a cell phone. Have options open to you. But having said all that, your best weapon is your common sense and discretion.
