i have always abhorred guns, but today I signed up to learn how to handle a hand gun. In the past month, I have nearly been robbed at the least and killed at the worst. After work I left my office with my 10 pound dog at 8:15. A junkie was standing against my car and I became acutely aware that except for us, the office park was deserted. My dog turned vicious and I told him my dog bites and if he doesn't get off my car and walk away, I was releasing the dog. He stared at me for a few seconds, then walked away. Then last week I keft the office again and once I got out of the building, I turned left as always to get tiny car. My dog turned vicious again and pulled me the other way and I saw a guy with a hoodie and ski mask coming from behind the building toward me. I ran to my car and got the hell out of there.
There is a drug treatment center in one of the buildings and I'm all but certain they targeted me. I'm always the last one out. So I called my landlord and police. The police told me I was overreacting and when I requested that they do some drive through a he said no, if I want a guard I'll have to hire one. When I told my landlord what he said, he was pissed.
When I was 24 I was strangled and left for dead by a junkie looking for drugs in the medical clinic I worked in. Already a PTSDer from childhood sexual, physical and verbal abuse, this attack devastated me. I've never gotten over it.
As you can imagine, I am really struggling about my safety. I talked to weapons dealers about getting a stun gun, but they don't really work if the perp has on layers of clothes. So I'm going to get a gun.
Any advice??? I signed up for a course in gun safety and when I pass that, then they will teach me how to shoot. They told me not to buy one until I've used different models the range uses for lessons.
