@240B@Freya So, someone shot into a car. Remember some time ago about a killer being above cars, and shooting into cars? How safe are we when we go to church, getting there by car, hoping not to be shot on the road, and being in church - is someone coming in to kill us?
I just got a new copy of book, "1984", to re-read (can't find the old one) and one by Sinclair Lewis, "It Can't Happen Here" (have never read this one). 240, I am the oldest one here and know when we were safe in our homes and when we went out. We didn't lock our houses, and when we parked car in town, didn't take the keys out of the car.
I just got a self defense hand "tool" (not a firearm) to keep in my purse, easy to get it in my hand in case of frontal attack. Have two other defense ones more deadly that are placed inside house behind front door.
One must practice in one's mind how to use this new "tool" in this situation and that situation, and be damn sure one will use it. Never bring out a tool or deadly weapon unless you are ready to use it; if one hesitates, the bad guy will get it and use it on you.
A few years ago, a liberal friend told me no one would attack her as the attacker will see a halo around her that says she is peaceful.
Be safe, 240.
