If this was the knockout game, you are on the ground already, no matter your age.

You’ve got to get it into action, take the safety off, rack the slide, whatever. And it has mass and you have to point it at the guy.

Having a gun at a distance is good, but not close in, especially if you are frail with not much grip strength. I can see the thug slapping it out of your hand.

I take a walk in the wee hours, about 1.5 miles. A few nights ago a young homeless looking guy was walking in the opposite direction. I looked him in the eye and said hello as he approached. After he passed I turned just in time to see he had changed direction and was nearly at my side. When he saw me looking, he turned tail and kept walking. I believe he was going to assault me. So I plan to get some pepper spray and have it in my hand whenever I approach a sketchy character.

Evil comes in all colors

As does psychopathy. Liberalism/progressivism/communism has fostered two generations of psychopaths. These people literally have no conscience or probably even the concept of a conscience.

He’s a loser all right. He’s breathing air that can go to someone else.

“THAT is the only way this kind of barbaric attack will be curtailed. Catch ‘em and kill ‘em, no hesitation, no regrets.”

Yep.
