Do you take it in stride when people ask you your reasons for doing various things?

I'm not asking to be combative, I'm just asking in general because I guess I would wonder why you feel you need to ask someone that. Even if the only reason is because "it's their right," so what?

I feel as though I need it for protection. It goes beyond the fact that it is my right. And lately, I have had more and more incidents that have made me glad that I started carrying. Plus, I am quick to jump in my car and take off on a road trip. Often I travel alone and meet up with friends and family once I reach my destination. But I like having it with me in case something happens while I'm out on the road at night.

Really? Is that even necessary? Do you respond the same way when the people you ask say they need it for protection?

Similar to how you did with Kevin. You don't read for context.

ETA: Not to mention that I didn't ask you anything.
