I don't carry it any more. My Big Tex sap hangs on the wall in my gun room next to my PR24, whislte, and handcuffs. I carries it tucked in my gun belt. That slapper pacified a lot of resisting miscreants back in the day. Those were the days. (Sigh.) But I do have an ASP in my truck for contingencies.
My SAP gloves wore out but my steel baton still works perfectly 😉
 
Before I say anything else I want to point out that these robberies and riots never happened.

This is semi-related in Colorado Springs there's one big Clearing House Food Bank called Care and Share. A couple of times a year they have food drives to fill up their warehouse and then they take that food and they distribute it to food banks around the city.

They just recently had food drive and apparently they filled up the warehouse.

There are also several churches who have food banks.

My last assignment as a security guard for Allied Universal there were I think four or maybe five low income housing units that I had to check every night. More than once I found somebody that I worked with a living in those low income housing units.

Most of the people that lived there were on food assistance and they would get a food distribution every month or they'd go to the food bank and they'd get a package.

Right around the first and the 15th of the month. I would stop at the 5 housing units and they're usually a table in the entryway that people would take the food that they didn't want out of their distribution and stack it up on that table so that if people didn't want it or needed some extra they could take it.

I said all that to say that there's no reason for anybody to go hungry in Colorado Springs.

I found this in one of those units too. It's hard to see what it is in the picture but it's somebody's weave that fell off and was hanging on her shopping cart I called it velveeta's braid

Now I'm going to get a little judgy, my wife used to volunteer for a Nameless food pantry in Colorado Springs. I think she worked there for 20 hours a week helping out and she got a food distribution every week. I'm not going to lie security guards do not get paid wonderfully in Colorado Springs that food distribution helped out.

So the judging part is that she worked with people at that food bank who were working there to get the food distribution, not because they needed the food but so that they could spend less on groceries and take the savings up to Cripple Creek to gamble.

When we lived in the apartment there was a food bank right behind our house and I used to drive through their parking lot on distribution day and I kind of always wondered when I saw these late model cars parked out in front of the place and the people in line waiting for food.
