Too many people seem to get all caught up in “stereotyping” other people. I try to determine a threat based on a person’s demeanor/behavior and actions. Not how they are dressed, what tattoo’s they have, and definitely not color as stated above. But to each their own I guess….
When you finally strap on your new tool of choice, for me, it in itself is a constant reminder to be aware of my surroundings. Congrats on your plastic
