Yes. I can put it in such simple terms. Shooting someone because you're scared doesn't take balls. Having a gun and the ability to shoot someone but not doing such... does.
Problem: You're suggesting that someone stealing your wallet would prevent you from taking care of the financial needs of your sick wife?
Solution: Stop carrying so much friggin' cash in your wallet, bro. Most of us have credit cards or electronic bank accounts... things that no street hood is gonna mess with too bad. Cancel the cards after you get jacked. Deal with it.

The current belief of most courts in the US when granting concealed weapon permits is that you will lawfully use the handgun you carry to protect your life or the life of another. Robbery makes that scenario iffy in the courtroom.
I am more afraid of the system sending me to jail for 15 years because I shot a robber "defending myself" than I am of a robber actually hurting me.
