RE: Long walk home, I am home when in my RV in a campground.
I am unarmed, have been for 71 years, have been RVing that way for 13 years. Have yet to see an occasion where I or anyone else would have been better off had they been armed. We boondock, we drove to Alaska, we usually hangout where there are other RVers, but not always. If a place doesn't feel comfortable I move on. That has happened a time or two, but always before we even started to set up.
I only hope if one of neighbors with a weapon has to shoot somebody that the bullet doesn't penetrate my coach.
Safe and quiet travels to all.
