We have..

"everywhere that it is legal to carry." -- so not everwhere
"I have been armed most times " -- most, not all
"I absolutely do carry almost everywhere." -- almost
"Most of the time I do" -- sometimes not
"The only exception is if I know it would be unlawful to carry where I'm going" -- no not everywhere
"I obviously do not carry when I enter a restricted area..." -- so not everywhere
"I'd say about 80 or 85% of the time." -- 20-15% not
" I carry most of the time." -- and sometimes not
"I carry whenever I'm not at work or drinking." -- so not 100%
"I don't always carry one out to the mailbox." -- so not everywhere

None meet your original assertion- "will go nowhere without being armed."

No matter how you spin it, you didn't get what you claim.

Does anyone here carry a firearm everywhere they go? [View all] Starboard Tack Jan 2012 OP

You're moving the goalposts. The words you used were... beevul Jan 2012 #1

can you explain this distinction for me please? iverglas Jan 2012 #58

Sure , no problem. beevul Jan 2012 #73

oh well iverglas Jan 2012 #74

I might have known the way you'd respond. beevul Jan 2012 #75

I went to a football game the other day, didn't carry then. rl6214 Jan 2012 #2

Very clearly, "go nowhere without being armed" does not apply to you. beevul Jan 2012 #3

Really? Then how come you said differently in another thread? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #67

snork iverglas Jan 2012 #79

I have also posted that I carry 99% of the time rl6214 Jan 2012 #87

OK you have now given three completely different answers Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #89

First I don't "tote" a gun, I carry a gun rl6214 Jan 2012 #90

You don't tote. You carry. I give up. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #93

And you know you use the term "tote" to be some sort of insult rl6214 Jan 2012 #94

Are you in complete denial? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #96

Are you angry? rl6214 Jan 2012 #97

No I'm not angry. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #100

tote has been hoyted...everyone knows this here. ileus Jan 2012 #101

What absolute nonsense. You made that up. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #102

Are you honestly saying that you do not read Hoyt's posts? ManiacJoe Jan 2012 #111

Of course I read Hoyt's posts Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #113

Hoyt has turned "tote" into a slur. ManiacJoe Jan 2012 #114

You're shitting me? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #115

Go back to DU2 and read it all for yourself. ManiacJoe Jan 2012 #118

And therefore the use of "tote"... jeepnstein Jan 2012 #145

What an asinine premise.. X_Digger Jan 2012 #4

See this thread. beevul Jan 2012 #6

Yeah, he can't be bothered to back up his bluster with actual posts (or even threads). X_Digger Jan 2012 #8

What a crock. Don't put words in my mouth Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #86

"those who have stated that they will go nowhere without being armed." X_Digger Jan 2012 #91

"Walk it back now.."? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #92

Yes, I see you trying to walk it back. X_Digger Jan 2012 #95

You don't give up, do you? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #98

No, you made your bed, feel free to lie in it. X_Digger Jan 2012 #99

No, I clearly made my point. Thanks to you and your buddy Beevul Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #103

Lol, no you haven't.. "stated that they will go nowhere without being armed." X_Digger Jan 2012 #104

I wasn't expecting anyone to carry illegally, but you knew that. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #105

Michael Jackson would be proud of that moonwalk. X_Digger Jan 2012 #106

Why don't you ask them? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #107

Lol, I quoted them above.. X_Digger Jan 2012 #108

I named them. Now you can ask them. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #112

Apparently you didn't actually read my reply #4. I answered as well. X_Digger Jan 2012 #119

You can now add Old Codger to the list. That makes 9. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #117

Not a single person has stated that they "will go nowhere without being armed." X_Digger Jan 2012 #133

My turn: I dont carry a gun, so "go nowhere without being armed" obviously doesn't apply to me. N/T beevul Jan 2012 #5

Looks like two fundamental laws of the internet are going head to head: petronius Jan 2012 #7

Change "never" to "almost never" to get a more accurate response. krispos42 Jan 2012 #9

The assertion that they're "compulsive toters" wouldn't really stick so good then. beevul Jan 2012 #10

What is your problem with the word compulsive? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #12

There's a connotation of mental illness with it, that's why. krispos42 Jan 2012 #14

It's a fine line. I think it progressed from habitual to compulsive, for me, to fasten a seatbelt. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #16

The seatbelt is a bad analogy. rrneck Jan 2012 #22

I agree, but it wasn't my analogy in the first place. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #31

Only prime numbers? krispos42 Jan 2012 #56

I know. The prime number thing is odd. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #61

Now I understand rl6214 Jan 2012 #88

My problem, is you seem to keep changing the definition, in an effort to get it to stick. beevul Jan 2012 #18

Done and done. Atypical Liberal Jan 2012 #30

Fair enough. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #11

Assuming I carried legally and had the properly blessed and sealed permit... krispos42 Jan 2012 #13

And you have my full respect. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #15

From my experiences with other pro-gun Gungeon regulars, they have similar opinions. krispos42 Jan 2012 #55

Ever have your car broken into? ellisonz Jan 2012 #17

That is what they make in-car gun lockboxes MicaelS Jan 2012 #28

Nope. krispos42 Jan 2012 #54

Yes, everywhere that it is legal to carry. N/T GreenStormCloud Jan 2012 #19

Thank you for your honesty Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #32

Easy answer. I refuse to be an easy victim of violent crime. GreenStormCloud Jan 2012 #60

Not always a firearm one-eyed fat man Jan 2012 #20

The answer to that question lies bewtween two extremes. rrneck Jan 2012 #21

There is a huge difference between compulsive behavior and mental illness Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #34

If someone suffers from OCD rrneck Jan 2012 #40

"You have been questioning the sanity of people who carry guns from day one." Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #43

It's real simple. rrneck Jan 2012 #57

Total carry time under 4 hours, my entire life. Remmah2 Jan 2012 #23

"Everywhere" is an absolute DWC Jan 2012 #24

Thank you for your honesty Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #63

Most of the time I do ProgressiveProfessor Jan 2012 #25

I pretty much have a firearm with me or in my car wherever I go. OneTenthofOnePercent Jan 2012 #26

Are you saying that you would carry to a bar/party/stadium if it were legal? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #37

If they want to (and aren't drinking), why not? friendly_iconoclast Jan 2012 #45

I think you answered your own question Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #49

It is legal to carry to a bar/party in ohio and somtimes I do. If I plan on drinking.. I don't. OneTenthofOnePercent Jan 2012 #64

Yes michreject Jan 2012 #27

Can you explain your rationale for doing that? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #38

Because I can michreject Jan 2012 #48

That's your entire rationale for wearing a gun? Because you can? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #50

If I get an urge to do something, and it's not illegal, I do it michreject Jan 2012 #65

So you are compelled by your urges, provided they are legal? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #66

Isn't everybody, whom acts of their own free will, compelled by their urges? OneTenthofOnePercent Jan 2012 #76

Yes indeed. Thank you Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #77

"Compulsive toter", meet "compulsive gambling" beevul Jan 2012 #78

Excellent points you make. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #84

I would think the same way. Glassunion Jan 2012 #81

I used the word compulsive in it's literal sense. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #85

"because I can" iverglas Jan 2012 #80

I obviously do not carry when I enter a restricted area... spin Jan 2012 #29

Great answer. Thanks Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #35

Same back to you and yours. (n/t) spin Jan 2012 #41

Question for you. What is a place of nuisance? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #51

I only carry legally ileus Jan 2012 #33

Thanks for responding. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #36

I'd say about 80 or 85% of the time. ileus Jan 2012 #53

I carry most of the time. Tomorrow I won't as I am to escort my MOM to a oneshooter Jan 2012 #39

Is there anywhere you wouldn't carry, if it were legal? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #44

If it were legal to do so We_Have_A_Problem Jan 2012 #46

Can't think of any right offhand. n/t oneshooter Jan 2012 #47

Thanks, and I hope your Mom does well. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #52

We will know more tomorrow. Have a happy New Year, ya'll. n/t oneshooter Jan 2012 #59

Inasmuch as I live in a may issue (read *corrupt issue*) state I never carry. Simo 1939_1940 Jan 2012 #42

I carry whenever I'm not at work or drinking. armueller2001 Jan 2012 #62

I don't deal in absolutes. Glassunion Jan 2012 #68

You will not stop me! discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2012 #70

I live in New Jersey. discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2012 #69

Are you saying you would if NJ allowed it? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #71

I would say probably. discntnt_irny_srcsm Jan 2012 #72

I don't always carry one out to the mailbox. Fourier Jan 2012 #82

Are you saying you carry everywhere else besides your mailbox? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #83

Always Old Codger Jan 2012 #109

What's it like to live fightthegoodfightnow Jan 2012 #110

I wouldn't know, having never carried a handgun outside of a range. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #116

I don't have a clue. I don't carry, ever. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #122

My dead neighbor is a fear monger. E6-B Jan 2012 #126

Why do you say a murder victim is a fear monger? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #127

Fear mongering. E6-B Jan 2012 #142

So you decided to join that cycle of fear? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #143

Drug dealers choose to find my house E6-B Jan 2012 #144

Not everywhere, no. benEzra Jan 2012 #120

I'm not big on legislating either way. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #121

I agree. (n/t) benEzra Jan 2012 #123

Where don't you carry? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #128

Post removed Post removed Jan 2012 #124

Only at night 100% of the time. E6-B Jan 2012 #125

i will be carrying into a high school later today at a basketball game. YllwFvr Jan 2012 #129

Good for you. I assume you are a cop. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #132

mostly YllwFvr Jan 2012 #134

What places constitute the other 10%? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #135

family or a few friends YllwFvr Jan 2012 #138

Glad to hear you're a reasonable man, respecting others wishes. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #139

No. Callisto32 Jan 2012 #130

Is that the only place you don't carry? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #131

How about high risk gender? TPaine7 Jan 2012 #136

As long as cops carry, everybody should be allowed to carry if they are mentally competent. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #137

Wow, I largely agree. TPaine7 Jan 2012 #140

There you go. You see, we're not that far apart. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #141

This Starboard Tack makes more sense than the old one... Callisto32 Jan 2012 #147

I know it's been a while, but...here's a reply. Callisto32 Jan 2012 #146
