Precisely.
It is relatively uncommon to be victimized by a complete stranger. People who pack weapons for protection are unlikely to "need" the gun at all (unless they have quick tempers or use guns as a FIRST resort); and are more likely to "need" the gun as protection against a family member, friend, or acquaintance.
I ask gun carriers why they feel they need it (beyond "it's my right!!!") and who they think they'll need it against.
This is just a reminder that you're more likely to be sleeping with the enemy, so keep your heat on you even after you get home. I'm jokingly serious, but this woman probably knew she was in a dangerous relationship and that she and/or her husband ("victim" and "offender" aren't always easily determined) had homicidal and suicidal tendencies.
