It only takes once. The last thing you want to do is be standing around staring at a lunatic with a knife (or worse) wishing you had a way to protect yourself and whoever might be with you.
I don't care where you live or how much you try to prevent going into "shady" areas. People who wish to cause you harm are outliers, they're unpredictable, they're not the norm. You can't predict irrational behavior, only prepare to respond to it.
Carrying a gun, no one knows but me. I don't cause any harm to anyone in my surroundings (I don't pull it out and use it to clear the line at the checkout counter). But if someone starts to threaten me, I'm prepared. If they don't... well I just carry some extra weight and a piece of mind in the small of my back.
