I am armed all the time I am a wake, unless I am in the shower, or the 2 or 3 times a month my job takes me to the court house. When in the shower the gun is with in arms reach. When going to the court house, after I park, the gun gets locked in the car, when I get back in the car, its right back on me. It does no good if you don't have it when you need it, and you just never know when you need it.
