I had an uncle that wouldn’t go walking without brass knuckles and a chain because he was scared of getting mugged.
He lived in the most upper class suburban neighborhood I’ve ever seen but the conservative talk shows had just poisoned his mind, he was afraid of everything.
Yep. This is how it goes. People consume content like this religiously and begin to construct a false narrative of the world in their heads. And they then sort of seek out confrontation to bring that fantasy of victimhood into their life
I knew a guy who lived in rich suburbs and bought a gun because he “heard a drug deal went down” and he “wanted to protect his daughter”. People are stupid and even more so when scared.
I don’t understand. The last drug deal i remember, back in the mists of my youth (obvs i don’t commit crimes nowadays) was at a michelin star restaurant. Everybody had a wonderful time.
Most of them involved video games.
The only one i was ever at whete somebody got hurt was when i spilled hot coffee. Even then it wasn’t, like, mcdonalds bad.
Edit: do you people not play a round of super smash brothers or mario kart with your dealer? Is that like a pre-covid thing? Is it all app based bullshit these days?
I had some and tried them on a tree. Those HURT. I dunno if I just got crappy ones but I can’t see using them. FWIW armored gloves do just as much damage and don’t fuck your fingers up.
there’s probably a right way to use them, and several wrong ways. as with most things, it requires training. also, punching a tree is probably not a great idea.

A… Drug deal?

Rich areas can be bad because that’s where thieves go.
Rich areas are bad because they have the rich in them.
