I even read that some residents carry concealed at mail stations!
It's illegal to carry inside of a post office. I'm not sure that that applies to mail stations.

As far as where people carry, it's all over. A hand gun is a defensive weapon that one carries in case of an emergency. An emergency can happen anywhere. To me, it's that same as wearing a seat belt. You don't decide to not wear your seatbelt thinking that you're not going to get into an accident. You know that an accident can happen anywhere. If a person decides to carry, they should carry everywhere that it's permitted in order to protect themselves and those around them. Do you think that mail stations are completely safe and that there is zero chance of being attacked there?

Some people decide that carrying a gun is not for them. That's fine, we all have a right to make that choice. if something happens that requires the use to lethal force to save a life, those people would be thankful if someone in the area chose to carry and was able to defend them.
