    No licensed CCW owner here is walking around armed like a schizo looking over their shoulder and afraid of every person they meet ready to fire.

            No. “I enjoy this” does not equal “I deserve this.”

            I can also list all kinds of things some people enjoy which they don’t deserve. Like sex with women who don’t consent. I could go on…
