Well, I'm definitely feeling a lot better about the fact I'm in Beacon frequently, and I always bring one of my carry pistols with me.
I always view Beacon as high crime potentially, because it's filled with liberals these days. Wearing skinny jeans is like an advertisement for "I don't carry." So it makes sense someone looking to commit a crime is going to consider it low hanging fruit like any other area with low or no chance of encountering an armed private citizen.
