Have you switched from, for example, a Smith and Wesson model 642 or the like to a High Capacity Glock? Are you now carrying a long gun in your vehicle? Do you carry more reloads or ammo now than you did before all this craziness really gained speed?

Not "what" in my case but "whether."
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

Do you carry more reloads or ammo now than you did before all this craziness really gained speed? I made this choice 5 or 6 years ago, when I saw the increased prevalence of mob violence against Whites by blacks. Before this became so frequent an occurrence, I carried either five or six shot revolvers, or single stack auto pistols. As a result of this observation, I switched to the Glock 17. A little more than a year ago, I switched to a Glock 26 (with flush magazine), but with a spare 17 round mag on my belt.

I went from a single stack Kahr to a double stack Springfield several years ago when the flash mobs and rqndom beatings of whites were happening. I also started carrying an AR behind the seat of the truck.

I went to carrying my little .380 front pocket pistol whenever I go out (except for the restaurant bars( ever since this crap started. I think once you start shooting back the cowards will flee. I carry the extra clip in my truck.
If I run ut of bullets I throw the damn pistol at them like they do in the movies.

9X18 Polish P-64 as a carry piece (for several years it's been my daily carry) but now I carry a 1911 with a couple of spare magazines in the console of my truck. I'm also considering doing a buildup of an 80% lower AR-10 to keep behind the seat of the pickup.

No but there aren't any blacks or gangs or mob violence/riots around here. I've always got a long gun in my vehicle and what it is changes with time of year and what's in season. During deer season it will be a centerfire lever or bolt action rifle. This time of year it's a bolt action .22-250 or .22 magnum for varmints. I generally stay the hell away from any shyt hole city {can't stand all the ass holes that live in them} so having to kill hordes of rioting communists is of little concern.

Better to just avoid the problem areas. Better yet move to an area with low crime. This is the new norm.
Good luck shooting someone in self defense in today's climate. At the very least you'll be bankrupted.

Around here I keep a Sig P938 in the truck, but instead of one of my Kahr's for carry I changed to the Ruger SR9C and the 18 round capacity..
