Unfortunately I currently live in a less than amazing neighborhood. At the moment, it's with in my budget, and not too far from my job. It's about 7 miles from work, and usually a 30 to 40 minute drive home. Welcome to S. Florida!

The first month I lived here was quite a show. Multiple times I came home, to find squad cars only a door or two away. My truck was broken into. Oh, and I found out that my door didn't lock properly. Needless to say I decided quickly that I'd keep my firearm handy.

When I get home, I change and usually end up putting my EDC in the pocket of my recliner chair. It's currently here now. At night it's sitting on my nightstand ready to go. About a 2 feet away from that is my gun cabinet. They are all loaded and ready to go, if something happens with my EDC.

(Today no less than 4 squad cars, a firetruck and EMT one street over)

My gf knows and isn't uncomfortable with it.

I'm not paranoid. I am acutely aware of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. I am ready for anything that might happen.
