We should use common sense and make wide decisions while armed.
As well as narrow decisions.
Under Simkin v. Commonwealth, the SJC said it is not the fault of the gun carrier if someone get scared/upset when he does something he is licensed to do.
BUT.... I would not trust the lower courts to follow this logic, nor would I trust the SJC to apply it in a case with different circumstances than Simkin's.
[I'm not convinced that all chiefs will abide by Simkin either!]
I am not convinced that all judges will either.
