A Christmas Story

I posted a few days ago about a scary encounter I had on a bus locally here in Washington State, you can read it through my profile. I realize I only alluded to the fact that the man accosting me had an object that I couldn't make out in his pocket and I don't think it was a cellphone.Regardless as always when posting on CCW and reddit in general I learned a lot and got a wide range of opinions but mostly support.The greatest support came from user u/ohio_sheepdog who not only gave me the best advice (to do what I could to remove myself from the situation) but also bought me a pair of gloves. A pair of gloves that are the best I've ever owned, that got here in a few days time, and that will still allow me to use my firearm should the need ever arise.I moved from Florida to Washington state with my fiancée who broke up with me about 6 months after the move due to our differences regarding covid. I am across the country from my family and in a rough financial situation. I'm working two jobs, going to school, and doing so without a vehicle which unfortunately forces me to be exposed to both natures elements but also the criminal element that is far too common on the streets here.I didn't truly understand what I was getting myself into with the cold and just as I was starting to give up this kind person took the time and money to give me something to help keep me going.I want to say a sincere thank you to Ohio Sheepdog and to reddit. I also want to say that I am truly blessed to have the privilege of life and the ability to protect it should the need arise.Happy Holidays everyone <3 via /r/CCW https://www.reddit.com/r/CCW/comments/zoakix/a_christmas_story/?utm_source=ifttt
