Well, licensed or no, I think the number of people in any one particular area that are carrying guns is likely relatively small. Now other weapons, like knives, etc., probably much more common - some legal, some not. I'd be willing to be that for each of us, there are times where, even in public, we may be the only ones carrying in the immediate area. Too bad too, if more bad guys thought more folks were carrying, maybe we could actually reduce the amount of crime.
