Hello JJ,
Here in Florida it is very easy to obtain a concealed weapons permit. I have several pro photographers associates who have obtain theirs based on the fact that they are usually moving about with a few thousand dollars worth of equipment (as we know that isn't very hard to do) and the state recognizes the risk they faced.
I am not sure if this is good or bad???, I sort of think a "security in numbers" might be a better methodology. If possible get a few folks to tag along with you? Maybe a photo club outing or similar. It is sad but civility seems to be fading?
Three shining bare spikes on the end of a tripod are worth remembering too. But in closing as attached to our equipment as we tend to be. It can all be replaced and a life can not.
Take Care of yourself, I'm happy to hear you are okay and I'm going to go look at the bear spray that sounds pretty good! But my 9mm has 15 answers to the problem. . . then I'll need a good lawyer!
Paul
