Some of us do, but not for the reasons the gun-nuts might think.

I don't want to carry visibly because cops have been known to shoot people
holding candy bars (NY), cell phones (Chicago), or nothing at all (NY and

Quite frankly, I don't trust cops to be either reasonable or rational, and I
don't want to give them the slightest excuse to start spray-and-pray.
