I would rather have mine and never need it that need it and never have it.
which is why I prefaced my comments by saying I can only speak about my experience with my relatives in law enforcement. And again, having a fire arm at home for protection is one thing, taking it with you to argue with a neighbor over a skateboarder is another.
