Funny story though: Over 45 years ago, in my nice quiet neighborhood in NY, two guys tried to mug me. One shoved a gun in my side.
It was a beautiful quiet evening, nobody on the street. I knew it was unlikely to end well if I screamed with that gun in my side, so I pushed it away and then screamed. The guys weren't expecting that. The guy with the gun smacked me in the head with it. I kept screaming and they moved away a little, and I knew I had no chance of getting away until they left.
So I ran after them yelling and they ran away, and as soon as they were out of sight I continued on to my friend's house and she called the cops for me. At that point I started shaking.
I tend to get mad first and think about it later. I was lucky, of course, that those two guys were idiots easily discouraged from their purpose.
I don't think you're wrong.

All criminals are idiots. Somebody is always watching. Real strength comes from within. So raise the frequency high high
