"Agreed about thugs.I had my fill of 'em by the time I was 18."
I had my fill of em at 23. Two potentially deadly attacks. I have a terrible scar on my leg from the home invasion...tried to be Bruce Lee...didn't work:)
By the way, I lived in an upper middle class neighborhood.
Not a high crime area.
Nowadays, the better neighborhood you live in, or the finer car you drive, you are a sitting duck! But not me. I did my time, now the onus is on the scum. Incedentally,, don't believe for one minute that the local police do not want you to protect yourself. Most do, and if you get to know them, they will even tell you how to COA. They aren't cops for the money. Most of the ones I know are retired or favorably released Marines.
Best, IA

Yep.I've got long term damage from getting jumped a number of times long ago and had some of it fixed this year.I didn't even know part of it was messing me up till the Docs found things when I was looking for something else.

3 surgeries in the last year from damage done decades ago.The Docs did me a lot of good though and I can really have fun with a metal detector now,too. :O)
