Old fucker says he had his 6(shooter) loaded and ready to fire on a kid looking for her lost cat, tries to play it off by saying he wasn't going to shoot her but simply assault her instead and says ringing doorbells in 2023 gets you shot.

      Yeah for real. I felt generally more welcome in San Diego, Portland, and Seattle than I did in Wasilla aka "The Hills have Eyes" neck of the woods

        At least in cities I generally know what not to do if I don't want to put myself at risk. There's no logic to follow to avoid somebody shooting you for simply ringing their doorbell or driving up their driveway.

          I've talked to people thatve worked in delivery and they always told me the rural areas are the most sketch for them. One dude told me he had a shotgun shoved in his face even though he was shouting "delivery from X-company". Others have told me that they've had guys that ordered the shit they delivered casually bear their arms while they're dropping off their delivery to their front door

          In the cities, if someone points a gun at me, I know they just want my wallet, since I'm not in a gang. Can't say the same about rural areas.
