Homer,

I hear some misgivings in your post about your willingness to carry.

If you have those questions in your mind, even in the darkest recesses, you need to really think this one through.

A weapon of any kind (lethal or less lethal) is not an be all end all safety device.

I can promise you that all of the problems begin after you have decided to remove any weapon from its method of carry, and they don't end for years and years.

Before you make the decisions it is time to do some soul searching, and time to gain some education.

I know I am starting to sound like someone's parent here, but remember there is more to this than meets the initial inspection. You will have to live or die with your decisions, so make them informed decisions.

I'm done.

Good Luck
