Quick answer is "Why would you ever need a seat belt?"

This is one of the best I've heard.

I've carried a knife since I was kid. (They used to be part of a kid package and didn't mean anything.) I still carry a great big folding Gerber. I've never needed it for anything but cutting tags off and opening plastic packages. I carry it also if I need to change the direction of things if someone is trying to cause me a problem.

I can't say I will never need it for other than opening a package but I'll have it for those other cases also. I'll carry a gun for those other cases also.
