Reposting this, because it’s becoming much more relevant, even in the month since I originally posted it.
When someone follows a reporter for forty miles, then physically assaults them while shouting about “Trump’s America now,” and there needs to be an investigation to see if there might be a “bias-influenced” incident, you’d damned well better be ready to defend yourself.
It’s only a matter of time before harassments escalate more widely. Be prepared.
Bullets don’t care which way the wind blows.
They sure don’t, but I totally understand if someone prefers a less lethal option, and pepper spray is vastly more available to everyone.
Someone mentioned elsewhere a while back that if you’re going to carry a deadly weapon, you should strongly consider also carrying pepper spray.
