Do you feel safe where you live? Or do you keep a baseball bat behind the door? 馃槺

We live in a small town in Scotland and it's pretty safe 馃憤
cherokeepatti61-69, F
I have a door stick and can swing it like a baseball bat鈥t鈥檚 made out of metal.
Eddiesolds61-69, M
@cherokeepatti nice! That would hurt.lol
SledgeHammer46-50, M
@cherokeepatti think about it... you hear someone in your crib.. you grab your stick... feeling lil scared... walk towards the sound you heard.... SOMEONE POPS OUT IN FRONT OF YOU AND WRESTLES YOU FOR YOUR STICK... THEY GOT IT NOW...

WHATS THE PLAN?
Notanymore36-40, M
I feel safe. And keep ordinances prepped as well as attack dogs
Notanymore36-40, M
@mondayschild2 gosh no. He's as big of a baby as possible. He does bark and make a scene if he doesn't know someone.
Eddiesolds61-69, M
@Notanymore cute little puppy dog
Eddiesolds61-69, M
@Notanymore Beautiful

It's pretty safe but I still lock the doors. 馃槓

@Lilymoon That's sensible.
I am safe.
Powderflask31-35, M
I should feel safe because I don鈥檛 live around people but because of past experiences I鈥檓 well prepared.
Mamapolo2016F
I feel safe. Just in case I'm wrong, I have a wooden club in the corner.
1LostNForgotten36-40, M
@Mamapolo2016 A Dog would protect you a lot better
Mamapolo2016F
@1LostNForgotten Yes. The club is to protect the dog.

We live in a small town in Arizona. It鈥檚 very quiet here. Biggest danger is hitting a elk with your car.

If you read my Featured story, you'll have an idea why I feel my life could be in danger. I'm an old lady so they can't really take much of my life at this point, and they might even spare me a few years in a nursing home. Nevertheless, no one wants to die as a murder victim.

I am in the process of buying a tactical flashlight combined with a stun gun. I plan to keep it right next to my bed within easy reach.

Nobody messes with a guy with big shoes and a red nose.
SledgeHammer46-50, M
@Dainbramadge I certainly dont!
FluffybullF
@Dainbramadge OMG! Clowns terrify me! That should keep anyone away!!!! 馃槺馃槺馃槺馃槺馃槅馃憤
MontanamanM
@Fluffybull same!
marsbarF
I feel pretty safe, but when I鈥檓 alone at home, I keep my bedroom door locked & keep the wooden arm of a captain鈥檚 chair near my bed. Lol
MontanamanM
No baseball bat needed. 馃槒馃槈馃槑
Dainbramadge56-60, M
@Montanaman For when the neighbors three blocks away have an intruder behind the refrigerator??? LOL
That thing is a beast.
MontanamanM
@Dainbramadge lolz 馃槅馃ぃ馃お
It's recoil is indescribable, but if I were to attempt to...
I'd call it orgasmic!馃き馃く
Dainbramadge56-60, M
@Montanaman I got a .44 Ruger Super Red Hawk and it kicks hard enough to loosen the fillings in your teeth.
I swear it has as much recoil as my Fanchi 12g does.
So I can only imagine that big dawg.
I don鈥檛 feel safe anywhere. Baseball bat behind the door, machete under my bed, a box cutter in my car.
curiosi61-69, F
Golf club, swings easy and that end can do some damage.
@curiosi damn skippy 馃暫馃憤
SpoiledbratF
I feel safe but we have guns.
Eddiesolds61-69, M
Yes very safe
AzlottoM
On a scale of 1 to 10. I sleep with a 9 under my pillow.

@chockaholic2020 there are lovely beaches in the north there that you can't use much can you? I've only been to the South of Australia and encountered a few huntsmen. Lovely country.
FreshAirLover26-30, M
Yeah, it's pretty safe here (large town). I can't imagine living in an unsafe or dangerous neighborhood.
SW-User
@FreshAirLover I've lived in crime infested areas many times.
scabs51-55, T
I'm from Detroit theres no way I'm leaving a door unlocked
FluffybullF
@scabs I've heard about Detroit 馃槰

@Fluffybull Not the best place to be
tindrummerM
Relatively small town in California here and I mostly feel quite safe.
SW-User
Statistically crime has risen all over the world since the pandemic began

Too many loser psychos locked up wanting to play devils cos it鈥檚 their right to express themselves don鈥檛 ya know, they welcome jail for that ultimate last fix.

Gotta be one step ahead in this game of life 馃儚
MissTaken36-40, F
Perfectly safe in rural Norfolk
monte370-79, M
We are very safe 馃憤.
Synyster51-55, M
I love Scotland, been there only once, in Troon.

Yeah it's quite safe here, and yes, I keep Lucille next to my bed.

FluffybullF
@Synyster Oh, I know Troon - I used to live in Ayrshire for a while!
Synyster51-55, M
@Fluffybull
Oh I went there for a day, it's beautiful there.
Beatbox3431-35, M
I wouldn't say it's a good place to live. It had a reputation in the early 2000's and then people are really violent.
RoxClymer41-45, M
Safe, I live in the middlee of now where, I have like a 5,000:1 chance of a stay bullet hitting me

@RoxClymer 馃憦馃憦馃憦馃槉馃憤
SledgeHammer46-50, M
Actually...
I been living here most my life... pretty much know everyone in a miles range.

Regardless...I keep a snub within reach
StillwaitingM
Generally feel safe .. but have exercised my 2nd amendment rights
FluffybullF
@Stillwaiting Am sure that makes you feel safer.
StillwaitingM
@Fluffybull I hunt and shoot trap, sporting clays, etc too as main reason I own firearms ..
MellyMel22F
[i][c=BF0080]It鈥檚 pretty safe I think, but I have a bat in almost every room ready. You never know 馃槼馃憖馃ぃ [/c][/i]
FluffybullF
@MellyMel22 Indeed......馃槉馃憤

It's a reasonable town and neighborhood. I take precautions though, as things are always changing.
smiler201256-60
{@fluffybull] i live in england a small town and it more or less the same as you
Grateful4youM
I live in a double- locked gated community. I feel relatively safe here.
ninalanyon61-69, T
I feel safe. I live in a small town in Norway. I don't possess a baseball bat!
keep a glove close by it. someday your lawyer may thank you
Dusty101F
Safe enough!
I have a hurl stick beside my bed. Just in case!
It鈥檚 the baseball bat ( 7-iron)
That makes me feel safe
1LostNForgotten36-40, M
I feel like I would rather be anywhere else
FluffybullF
@1LostNForgotten Oh, I'm sorry about that. 馃槬

Yes, I feel very safe so far.
FluffybullF
@NoGamesTolerated That's good 馃憤
No I don鈥檛 feel safe. We have walls, electric gates, burglar bars, alarms, armed response, security gates, satellite tracking in our vehicles and vicious dogs.
FluffybullF
@LilithoftheTrees Might be cheaper just to move elsewhere.....馃槈
@Fluffybull absolutely

PhaqueYouM
I live in D.C. take a wild guess.
FluffybullF
@PhaqueYou Hmmm, not too safe? 馃槰
I feel relatively safe here. I鈥檝e certainly lived places where I felt much less so.
