The term "victim disarmament zone" refers to anyplace where the prohibitionists have won, because the only people who get disarmed by zone are the victims, not the criminals.

If you have your definition of comfort zone is clearly limited to 'alive'.
The "meddling pipsqueek" whose comfort zone I was referring to was not some hypothetical perp (about whose comfort I care not one tiny bit), it was someone who would try to legally restrict me to only weapons they were comfortable with me having, like CS.

Unfortunately, they're <b>not</b> hypothetical.

if i was living somewhere in the US where it was legal to concealed carry i probably would, purely for safety.
Well, I'll tell you once again you're not in any danger from legally concealed weapons here; the crime rate among CCW holders is vanishingly small. It's the criminals you need to worry about.

Come to think of it, I don't think we grant CCWs to visitors anymore.
