I live in an area between the suburbs and the boonies. Most of the placesmy wife , son and Itravel are considered safe, relatively peaceful areas. These are not "high-crime" inner city areas. Do I really need to carry openly or concealed? My wife will say occassionally, "Why are you carrying here, it's a safe area?" My usual response is, "Hey, crime can happen anywhere!" Part of me wonders if I'm just being paranoid and overly cautious. But then I think to myself, "...you just never know." I'm sure I'll probably get "ripped on" for thinking this way, but I'm just curious to see if anyone else has these thoughts. By the way, I still mostly carry concealed over open.
