These are days of threatened attacks by terrorist groups and the craziness of random shootings and physical assaults. We’ve seen shootings in big box stores and other public places, as well as on the streets. We all remember the Boston Marathon bombing. It is also a time of parades, tree lightings, community gatherings, and a whole lot of shoppers filling malls and stores. Being at these events and  in public places is ample reason to be taking personal safety precautions, and that is what we discuss on this episode, along with tips on identifying someone carrying a firearm.If you would like to have the expanded notes on today's episode, along with the links mentioned in the episode, you'll find them at practicalprepping.info/436Please share this podcast with your friends, family, and on social media accounts.
