I took a conceal carry course and one of the main reasons they say to do it is safety. If you are open carrying in a store and someone wants to rob it they will either get scared off or take you out first. It's not worth the risk. That and I would always worry about someone just rushing me and trying to take/use it.
People aren't just buying new cars for fun in a recession. The point is people will need to buy a new car at some point. Either because they now need their own car or their old one isn't viable. At that point, choosing an electric car is a step in the right direction. That's why this post is stupid, it's acting like buying an electric car is just a frivolous purchase and not acknowledgeding that when someone needs to buy a car there is a choice to be made.
take it easy now, we don't need any rush hour rambos! ( lemmy.world )
Buying a new car is not better than keeping an old one ( lemmy.world )
