Why do wives sometimes become the "Fun Police"?
Of the couples that I am friends with, some wives feel it's their duty to limit the husbands freedom. Why is it her business what you carry? Is the extra mag bothering her in some way? What harm does one or two thin mags do?
Tell her she is "infringing" your rights
I'm not a sexist and certainly am not bashing your lovely and intelligent (as she carries as well) wife. I'm just a hard core believer in personal freedom, married or not. I suppose she would think me a real "psycho" for carring 2 guns while driving through Detroit...
Put is this way: If you are wrong and overly prepared; no harm done. And in the off chance she is mistaken . . .?

The next gale that sweeps from the North will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that Gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
-Patrick Henry, March, 1775
