(11,181 posts)If someone fits a profile, then they should take counter measures to ensure their safety. For example, if you are a hooker, or exotic dancer working in the rougher end of town, I would advise carrying. If you are engaged in gang activities or carry large amounts of cash or valuables, I would advise carrying. If you live in a really bad part of town, I would advise relocating, if possible, or maybe arming yourself. If the odds of you becoming a victim are statistically high, because of your lifestyle, then you might consider carrying. If you have already suffered violent attacks or threats, then you should consider carrying.
So, what makes you a target? Oh, right, you were afraid to walk through the streets of Manchester without your gun.
