A few years back I was running on the dedicated Walmart account for England out of Sterling, Il. The only time I have ever felt in danger was when I was taking a load to a Walmart off of Cicero in a ghetto of Chicago. It was 3 am in the middle of summer when I got off the interstate. I could not believe what I was seeing. It was like a huge nasty block party going on. The sidewalk was full of thugs on either side. I started to come to a stop at a light and noticed the crowd was starting to surround my truck as I slowed down. Not wanting to end up like that idiot Reginald in the LA riots, I started grabbing gears running the red light.
Bear Spray? What do you use for safety?

Do you use google? The same type search works here. Near the top is a box called SEARCH.
Someday someone is going to get shot for asking this, when it has been asked 50 times already, and subsequently argued to no resolve!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will pay $5 to anyone that can show me a shipper/receiver with a sign that says "guns/weapons allowed".
Mikeeeegrizzly Thanks this. -
If you're ever surrounded by thugs like that, just spray Right Guard deodorant & they will trample each other fleeing the scene.

Ive never had any crime problems. Just lock the doors to your truck. Statistically your more likely to get shot if you have a gun. Most criminals don't want to use there gun, but once you pull out yours they have to, so you don't shoot them first. They dont want to be murderers, they want to be thieves.
That being said, I have insurance and if someone comes at me with a gun, they can have my truck. They arnt going to get very far, because it will take them a few min to find and disable the gps, and by that time the cops will have um.
Where are you guys parking were there are no witnesses? I park in the city, but there's almost always others around. If door is locked, you can just drive away. Dont open the door and you wont need to spray/thump anyone -
