[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 1856656, member: 18914"] You mean like how carrying in a...oh let's say...a movie theater, for example, is inappropriate because there is no reasonable expectation of a threat? I am not trying to ridicule you, just pointing out that your judgement really shouldn't replace mine about where I should carry, and vice versa. Predicting threats is very dicey business since the average individual has little to no "operational environment" intelligence and so most preparation is in a vacuum. I look at it like any operational risk management - is the threat likely? In this case probably not. What is the result of the threat not being mitigated - result could be catastrophic. What is a reasonable mitigation effort? Carry your personal sidearm. That is my logic - there are, of course, many other things you could do as well. [/QUOTE]
