As others have said, as long as I"m awake I have my CCW piece on me and concealed. I have children in the house so I can't have things laying around within reach but even if I could I would still have one on me. At night there is a pair within 16 inches of me in either direction. I also live in a very safe area but every time you hear of something bad happening you also hear "I never thought it would never happen here"
