Picture of a #Dutch outfit during WWII... why am I not even surprised.
The Dutch couldnt be anymore Dutch if they tried!
Though I do plan to get one to keep in my car just in case, more out of preparedness than necessity.
This shows me that your remark about feeling safe is not entirely true. If you feel safe (let's take the Utrecht situation) you would not even think about having one in your car. Preparedness is weird imho.
@hansw If I were allowed to have a gun in my car in utrecht I would be just as eager to have one. Again its not out of a concern for safety its because it is responsible to do so.
I also keep packed away emergency ham radio in my car just in case there is a massive nationwide catastrophe and the cell networks were all to go down. That doesnt mean I walk around scared the cell networks would go down. It is because it is responsible to do so. Always be more prepared than you should ever expect to need, anything less is irresponsible.
Now I will say that while I feel exactly the same fear and necessity to have a gun in Utrecht as I do walking through my own city there are places I may feel legitimate fear and the necessity to to carry a gun out of fear. but those locations have nothing to do with the presence or lack of guns and everything to do with the economic despair of a particular location that I feel might lead to desperate acts.
