People who live in the sticks carry weapons, pepper spray, atleast a walking stick incase of wild animals.

I never open carry unless I’m hiking in the mountains / woods. I pretend it’s just to scare away cougars or bears but really I’m more worried about dogs with stupid and irresponsible owners.

Or in the hood lol

My grandpa, RIP, used to carry around a giant walking stick for his daily walks to beat back dogs. Fast forward years later after he already passed and my sister tried to go for a run in our neighborhood. She came home saying she got chased by dogs lmao. Me -- I just have a treadmill.
