Of course perception is not reality!!

Perception is individuals concepts and impressions influencing the reality of the world around them.

Gunnies want BG's perception to influence reality.Regarding CCW, if BG's don't know who is armed then the unarmed get a freebie!!

Gunnies may want to enhance BG's perception that they WILL DIE if they mess with certain folks with certain ID characteristics. Clothes, gunbag,etc. Using these "hints" may help the good guys. But alternatively it may attract the attention of law enforcement. It may be bets to be totally unremarkable in dress and appearance. Avoiding flagrant suggestions is important.Then its not CCW carry.

Once the reality of an attack is on then its all reality and how you deal with the threat. Still,if we enhance the perception of personal injury/death for BG's all benefit. The more BG's reported in the paper shot by good guys hopefullly means less crime for all.
