It saddens me that you don't own and carry weapons. Being unarmed seems to demonstrate either a disregard for the fragile nature of culture's veneer, or a total ignorance of it. What about your obligations to your children?

100%.
Personal security is a continuum, and we should all evaluate our place on the scale.
Even those that carry have different levels:
-In your vehicle is better than at home
-off-body is better than vehicle
-on-body is better
-chambered round adds capacity and readiness
-regular training
-backup weapons
-spare mags
-etc.
Almost ALL of us have room to improve.
