yup, its all hitting home these days
only strategy for older folks nowadays is to carry, cant do it in Canada but anyone older in the States should
My father-in-law carries and pulled out his gun on three younger dudes after a confrontation at his home in Florida. They fucked up a neighbor's lawn and he went to take pictures to report the workers to their employer. The three came after him and wanted to grab his phone which I bought for him. Well the gun game out. They dared him to shoot them and for a second he really wanted to - lol! Someone then called it in and the cops showed up a while later. They questioned him and one of the officers was a woman and she laughed when my father-in-law explained to them he was an older dude who can't get into a scrap with these young kids and had to do whatever was necessary to defend himself since he felt threatened. I mean, he has a pace maker and everything and is in his 80s. So they just left and nothing came from it. He's got quite an arsenal there and makes his own bullets. He's also an excellent shot and has been since a kid. Those guys would have all been dropped if they really went after him.
