I lived in East Oakland across the bay from SF as a young man I always had a weapon close by . Guns in the house guns in the car guns on me . I live way out in the boonies now and I sometimes carry when hiking and long walks . And a big walking stick and pepper spray we have Mountain Lions and Bears but drug crazed lunatics and weirdos are what I worry about and dogs on the loose . I’m glad we bought land long ago the prices are insane now Homes selling in one day with multiple offers above asking prices .
I’m glad my wife didn’t buy a house in sf to be honest ,
You can get a nice house in Texas for cheap,my mate just moved to Texas as well he’s a retired fireman he couldn’t afford to buy a house here either
As long as there good road to ride my Harley and somewhere I can make noise I’ll be happy
Sf is such an over rated city everyone is moving out of it now
I do have friends live in Indian lol there’s no way I’m moving there or Mexico ,I only like chicken mole burritos,
Not kidding!
@anon98660487 I know you are envious of that barroom somehow
Still reading through, but when spraying the PS make sure to get the entire face. When in a situation where you’re defending yourself it’s okay to have them choke on it.
Though mace if possible over pepper spray.
If in a pinch you can always make a homemade pepper fermentation to even make a homemade version though it will likely clog and that’s more of a backup of a backup in case of emergency on top of the fallback plan. Grab some superhot peppers, a lime or lemon, salt, water, and rather than green cabbage use red to watch the ph change. Seeds and stems. All of it. Just slice them up or toss in whole if you’d rather not want to PS yourself making it.
