This is a nice list of the reasons that we, as Americans can, and should, carry guns for self defense........there is a longer list at the link....

I CARRY A HANDGUN BECAUSE:

*Evil exists and may confront anyone at any time and any place.

*Evil exists to destroy all that is kind, good and loving.

*God exists and expects me to protect myself, those I love and those unable to protect themselves.


*Self-defense is a God-given, natural, unalienable right.

*The lives of the innocent—friend or stranger—are worth far more to me and to a just society than the lives of vicious criminals and terrorists.

*By carrying a handgun, I honor the foresight and wisdom of the Founders in writing the Second Amendment, which acknowledges, but does not create, the right to keep and bear arms.

*The Constitution does not bestow liberty; it restrains government from infringing on our liberties. Arms have always been necessary to remind government of that.

*Democrats and other deluded, malicious people are as desperate to disarm the law-abiding as they are to coddle violent criminals, domestic and foreign.

*Never in human history has a government disarmed a people for good reasons.

*Never in human history has a government disarmed a people to ensure greater individual liberty and public safety.


*Any government that would disarm a people cannot be trusted.

*A handgun is the most usual, convenient and effective means of self-defense.

*Going armed reinforces and upholds the Social Contract.

*A government that labels half of the nation “white supremacists,” “insurrectionists,” “domestic terrorists,” “racists” and sends federal law enforcement to spy on and harass parents objecting to the sexual and political indoctrination of their children makes plain the wisdom of the Founders in writing the First and Second amendments.

Better to have one and not need it, than to need one and not have it.
 
The one reason stated by M14Shooter, covers everything suggested by 2Aguy: See below:
 
I carry a handgun because a police officer is too heavy to fit on my belt.

I do carry a smaller gun these days than I do a quarter century ago, but my mentality on when I would use it has also changed significantly.

It’s because you have small hands and wear makeup.

Very true. One of the things that has changed in my mind is that I Amani longer interested in or willing to defend thise who are not part of my circle of friends/family and who refuse to protect themselves.

True, I carry just for my own protection.
 
I'm pretty confident I work in a much more "dangerous" area than most if not all of y'all, and I don't feel the need to be armed at all times. Do you all work at gas station convenience stores in Kabul?

Most places are safe, until they aren't. :omg:
