Would you leave your gun at home?

I was watching Lawrence O’Donnell and he interviewed the neighbor of the man who recently shot people in Arizona. O’Donnell asked the neighbor if she feared him, and she replied, no, because she always carries a gun. Now, I have no idea if her vocation requires her to carry a gun, or if she just carries for her own personal reasons.

Anyway, it got me thinking, for those of you who carry a gun to protect yourself from other people, if all crime no longer existed, would you be fine leaving your gun home? Or, do you still want to own it, have it, carry it, have it handy?

To be clear, for the purpose of this question I am not talking about hunting, or living in the wilderness where it is prudent to be able to product yourself against wild animals, and would have a firearm on your person, and I am not questioning owning antique guns as a collectible item.
