Don't get me wrong... I agree completely that just about anything can be reasonably argued and justified to support willfully giving up your rights and conforming to every single whim and social pressure of any kind... because "you never know" if, what or when "something" might come back to bite you. Fear and social manipulation are powerful motivators for conformity.So what your saying is:
"I hope I will not be charged with the ONE possible infraction to the law."
And
"I hope if I use my firearm to protect myself or family I will not be prosecuted in every way possible in this blue State of Oregon". OR that the family of who I used my firearm ageist no matter how justified it was, I hope they will not pursue aggressive legal action in every way possible and cite every possible infraction of law to help their BS case in this blue State of Oregon. They will. Own that now. Why anyone with assets to protect and carries should have some form of carry insurance for legal support. Hope is not a plan. Two moves ahead is, just like carrying in the first place.
Some people choose to live their lives that way... and if that's what brings them happiness... go for it.
Respect the fact though that not everyone chooses to live that way... if you agree with it or not... which I also understand can be difficult to accept when looking through the "conformity goggles".
Just sayin.....
