"AUSTIN, Texas — January saw numerous violent crimes in Austin, ending with a stabbing downtown."
Im sure most here have heard one version or another of;
"The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his sidearm. 'Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you expecting trouble?' 'No Ma'am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle.'"

Im no sheriff, but I do have to travel though, stop in and work in less nice parts of Austin each week.
So ya, I am expecting trouble..not looking for it, not wanting it, avoiding it if I can, but expecting.

And a violent January closes out with another knife attack https://www.kvue.com/article/news/crime ... a1bc1c427c
