Great info on personal safety today!


Great info on personal safety today. You might consider adding one other "weapon." As older folks, we regularly use a cane when walking. We have taken a course called "Cane-Fu" that teaches how to use your cane to defend yourself. When you appear weak (disabled, old, etc.), you can easily become a target. Using a metal or heavy wooden cane as a weapon can be a big surprise for an attacker. A cane can go anywhere with you, unlike firearms. It can be used from a distance.

Thanks for your mailings. We always look forward to reading them.
