For sure. thus my signature line.

The standard I settled on is not to go places I think pose predictable risk without compelling reasons.

I carry in all the non-risky places I go because I want them to stay non-risky, at least for peaceful citizens.

Plus, in the friendlier establishments I frequent, the proprietor and half the other customers will be carrying. I like to fit in.

Like you I tend to avoid places that are obviously higher risk. But you are right, one never knows where trouble can appear out of nowhere. One can be stopping at that local convenience store they have bought morning coffee at for the last 10 years when some clown decides that this is the day and place they want to do an armed robbery. We just never truly know.

I can believe it. There are always seedy looking fellows in those places. Not to mention the scum that wait for easy victims headed through the parking lot.
