Same type of reasoning, some low life comes up & sticks a gun in your face and your pockets are full of cash, who's the winner?
You really want a low life to have a gun at your head..and all you have on you is useless cards?

Debit is unreliable...I got into a situation last year, I had 2 gas cans for the shop, one I fill with 93 100% fuel for 2 strokes, one I fill with 87 E10 for riders, and then On a 3rd transaction, I was going to fill up my truck. Unfortunately, my bank decided to shut off my card due to "suspicious activity"....which was me buying gas 2 times. So the card, as it sat, was worthless, as an ATM card, or as a debit card. Thankfully I had 10 bucks cash in the ashtray and was able to get enough gas to get me home, the truck was bobbin on empty and I was about 20 miles from home.
