My $0.02 cents on the issue is this:
On spring guns and SA guns I like a safety. It gives me piece of mind with the light and short trigger pulls that these firearms exhibit. I always have the fear that something will catch on the trigger, and before I realize it, the firearm will go bang into my leg. Plus, most SA guns had an easy flip-down safety, that could be disengaged quite easily while drawing the weapon, and if you're in a position to holster it, the threat has passed and you can take the time to use your off-hand to re-engage it.
On DA/SA or DAO firearms with a long trigger pull I am ok without having a safety. In my mind both the weight of the trigger and the length of the pull both seem as a good deterrent to a AD/ND as you'll notice that something is dragging the trigger before the device goes "Bang!"
