I used to rarely carry because what I had was too large, heavy, uncomfortable, and hard to conceal in the shorts and tee shirt culture here in Florida, so a bought a small light 380 for everyday use.
Here in Florida, they asserted state law over local laws, so we long longer have a patchwork of this park, but not that park, this building, but not that building. It's made things a lot easier and I feel that I can carry without worrying about breaking the law. Sure, not on school grounds, in a bar, or some government buildings, and a few other places, but the list is short and reasonable.
My employer doesn't allow carry at work, so it stays in the car. I don't bother carrying to church if that's the only place I'm going (I feel safe there). But I can understand why others do.
But I do carry to the movies, and I am allowed to to do so here. At the recent shooting in Colorado, it wasn't allowed and some law abiding citizens many have paid with their lives for that short sighted rule.
