Where you can carry, you should. I love San Antonio, but when I was last down there for Fiesta (2001)...

I was sitting at an outdoor restaurant table when a guy in his 20's comes sprinting by, jumps over a wall, stumbles, and out comes a full size Glock skittering across the pavement. This was about 25 ft away from where I was sitting. Another guy comes running after him at full tilt and he gets up and runs off to get away. Chasing running guy #2 are two very fit (and very angry SAPD)... SAPD #1 grabs guy #2 and wrestles him down and cuffs him. SAPD #2 retrieves the Glock, but doesn't chase running guy #1.

It was a real Starsky and Hutch type foot chase, for those old enough to get the reference.

Kind of surprised me. I wasn't carrying at the time as I had been drinking and visiting some 51% locations. Nowadays, I think I'd stick to non-51% places and drink little if at all so I would feel comfortable carrying.
