My advice to 70 year old guys and gals is invest in a blackjack and if you see 3 or more Amish laughing and coming at you, pick out the biggest one and use the blackjack. Course we would have to come up with a new name to reflect the changed rules. Any ideas?

A blackjack is everywhere a prohibited weapon. And the thugs will claim they were just going up to the senior to ask for the time. Result? Senior gets arrested. Then senior gets sued.

My advice to seniors:

1. If you can avoid it, don't go roaming around after dark.
2. If you can avoid it, stay away from any area near a bus line.
3. If you must violate rules 1 and 2, carry police grade pepper spray. Carry it in your hand, not in your pocket or purse.

Yep, it stinks that such advice has to be even considered.

First, we gotta identify the assalants. Lets just call them N....r’s Anonomous. Then we 70 plus year olds do the ‘blackjack knockout N....r down’ game. Game over!

So sue me Eric, they are your people! F’m!

My thought is that this is terrible advice. I am 68 and still pretty spry, but I could never inflict serious damage on a man less than 50, even with a blackjack. No strength left, too slow, just plain too old.

My ideas:

1. Do not live where there are large numbers of young knock-out game players.

2. Do not live where you can not carry a firearm.

3. Do not rely on any weapon which requires even modest physical strength. You will lose and the weapon will be turned against you.
