When we are walking across a parking lot or are at a market, there is no desire to be assaulted, we are at our weakest defense at that time, that is why I think people put that fear into their heads.

I pretty much accept that I can be doing a routine errand and end up in a location of a mass shooting, because of that I find myself unavoidedly casing places, figuring out where to go in case of an emergency.
