I've seen people on the street get mugged, and didn't feel bad for them. Why won't people just protect themselves?

It can be scary to carry a gun or other weapons with you, especially in cities where violence can be frequent. Many people simply prefer to avoid carrying weapons for fear of accidentally discharging them or becoming another statistic in violent crime. Additionally, there may be legal restrictions on concealed carry or openly carrying weapons in certain areas. For people who are victims of a crime, reporting the crime and seeking legal help can be overwhelming. It is important to remember, however, that crime can be prevented by making wise decisions and taking necessary precautions such as being aware of your surroundings, locking your doors and windows, and walking in well-lit areas.
