22. Which is why . . .

Friday

. . . I now have loaded pump 12ga shotgun, loaded AR-15, and loaded .40 cal pistol within arm's reach.

I'm in Northern Virginia in a community with LARGE Hispanic presence for past 25 years as well as noticeable presence of Muslim and South Asians. ICE is constantly snooping around, have been a couple of minor confrontations. City cops and county sheriff do not support ICE operations.
