No, door locks and systems wherein agitation leads to alarms. Additionally hospitals frequently (but tbf not always) having parking that is monitored by security.

If it’s not abundantly clear I’m saying you’re being paranoid, much like any person who feels the need to carry a weapon 24/7. How often does your car get broken into at all? Let alone in the parking lot of a hospital? I’m sure it does happen but does that mean it’s likely? No

10% of homicides are via stabbing, the second highest cause after gun (the undisputed king at 80%). I am not proposing a “ban” on carrying knives though (clearly at no point did I ever say such a thing?), I am just questioning the need to carry one in every single context.

I’ve found that when I do this, very similar to gun people, knife people get absurdly defensive. Like you are here. “How dare you suggest my weapon not be on me at all times! It has a legitimate purpose, you see”. No one is saying that’s not true, it’s the same thing as the gun arguments, these are just deflections from the point of “do you need to carry a weapon 24/7”.
