Like I have said before, if you are so afraid or RVing and so incapable of making good campground choices that you need a deadly weapon at the ready 24/7/365 maybe you should consider another hobby.
We camp remote a lot, LEOs are hours away, If you can contact one, There are many Illegal Immigrants poaching game in the state forests and tree farms. They do not value your life very much.
I like the camping and do not believe I'll stop because of them.
There are many places to camp where illegals are not and the chances of needing a handgun are slight to non existent.
I think I will stand by my earlier point-in all but a few states harming someone (or worse) and the legal and financial consequences far out weigh carrying a handgun.
Camp in better places-and pay more for that campsite-it will be far cheaper in the long run.
I think it's real easy to say-"I'm going to carry my handgun because it's my right no matter how the laws are written." Yep, shoot or kill someone and you will be asking yourself if it was worth it.
CKNSLS, I would love to live in your delusional world where criminals announce where they are going to be, so you know where not to be. Oh, and your advice of pay more for a better campsite. Brilliant. Because it's a fact that criminals only hit the houses of the poor, not the wealthy.
I don't carry my handgun because it's my right. I carry because I have the right to. Big difference. The world is not as rosy as you seem to think. And guess what, no one has ever been robbed, assaulted or killed.... until that first time. Your logic of "I've never needed a gun before" is flat out illogical.
