While I obey all laws I have to admit that being legally dead is not a good option. It is only a matter of time before a terrorist picks a hospital. Hospitals should have ARMED security, but I have never seen an armed hospital guard, except for campus hospitals(university police) but then they rarely patrol the hospitals. I did see one in Wake Med 4 years ago when I went in for a pacemaker though. Our local hospital has elderly unarmed security guards.

I think Derringers are illegal in many states due to having no safety or trigger block. pretty sure Massachusetts does not allow them.
I try to abide by no carry zones, especially when I know I either cannot properly secure my firearm (like in a hotel safe in a room when I go swimming) or at amusement parks where you are searched (even if it's legal they don't allow them). Also, I do not carry in post offices, schools, or police stations. Doesn't mean it's not locked in my car, just not on my person...
However, someone like "Buffalo Wild Wings" putting gun free zone signs up- I just don't go in there. Food isn't that good, and I am not taking my gun off cause you're phobic.
