*shrug* Choose to not believe in guns all you want - they exist.

I've never understood that phrase. "I don't believe in guns". I can understand not believeing in God or the Tooth Fairy, but guns? Guns aren't a belief issue. Take a look at the cop down the street. The gun on his/her hip is very real, and entirely unconcerned as to whether or not you believe in it.

As to the question, I have a CCW permit. I don't carry on my person, but frequently carry in my vehicle. My job requires that I drive quite a bit and do so frequently in unsavory neighborhoods. As such, I consider the firearm to be insurance. I've never needed it, and that is how I like it. But I'd rather have it, just in case.
