Some believe that if you carry you need to do it all the time. If you knew when you would need a handgun you would avoid the place or if that were not possible, take a cop with you.
People carry them all the time for the same reasons people carry spare tires. You never know when and where you will need it. I've picked up a nail in my tire driving on seemingly clean and safe roads. One of the reasons why Florida's concealed carry law was passed was due to the large senior citizen population being selected as easy targets. I can understand the concern of those who have moved here from safe towns and cities but some of us have seen what even "good" people can do to each other. Also try to attend one of those meetings with a local sheriff and you may learn that most of the crime in TV is caused by guests and other outsiders. At least consider the possibility of the risk in living in a community where many of the homes are rented out to strangers. Bad people take vacations too. :-) In the end, the sheep dogs will be around to protect the sheep. We all have to decide which of these we want to be.
