Why not? What if I do get shot at? I carry a gun because I might have to defend myself. I figure the same reasoning behind wearing armor
logical approach!
A democrat would likely criticize you for carrying a gun (or armor) b/c you know...you're being too paranoid and probably live in fear.
I can't really criticize you for adding another layer of protection for yourself....kudos. We all make these kinds of subjective, protective judgements everyday...some go further than others.
