I'm sorry, didn't mean to be rude to you. I just needed to get to Helen before the likker store closed.

I carry whether I "feel the need to" or not. Same as wearing a seatbelt. Some of my most bizarre and threatening encounters have happened in very nice "safe" parts of town. If I have to go somewhere I feel the need to, I carry a bigger gun, a second gun, and get in and out ASAP if i don't have the option of avoiding it.

Yall must be hanging out in the wrong woods. I've never met anyone in the field who made me wish I was carrying a gun. I have had a couple of pretty intense, close up encounters with bears when I wasnt sure of their intentions, and didnt have a gun, but I dont consider myself unarmed as long as I have my knife on me. I've had it out a couple of times when things got tense. Like someone else said, situational awareness is the most important defence you have. My spider senses are always tingling. In the woods or in town.

Ripple, if you piddle around Chattahoochee long enough, you'll start to become acquainted with Helen's finest. That isn't necessarily a badge of honor!!

Right now is the only time in history people dont feel they need to carry a weapon on them at all times. Call me old fashioned.
I know some of the places he hunts. The only people he's likely to run into have probably been dead for years and the FBI has a missing persons file on them.
