Imagine how much of a pussy you have to be to need to wear a gun at all times.

Idk I'm a very small woman who lives alone in a bad neighborhood. Had a man try to break in my house. He simply saw me with a gun and ran away. Don't want to imagine what he could have done if something didn't scare him away, because it wasn't my Great Dane and it damn sure wasn't me that intimidated him.

Yes but do you wear it at all times?

This logic I'll agree with you on. It is strange that a grown man felt the need to wear his weapon to take the trash out, whereas I never felt like I had to even in my neighborhood. I keep mine in the house purely for defense.
