[MA/HT] Innocuous Improvised Weapons

Middle-aged people are also used to cars which broke down more often and needed more home maintenance than cars today, so more likely to carry tools, a flashlight, etc. Its like how we will be amusing our grandchildren by carefully limiting the volume of liquids we pack for flights, and putting them all in one clear plastic bag. "Grandpa, they don't care about that any more!"

I was just thinking that someone who looks like Rory Miller will have a harder time pulling off 'you wouldn't deprive an old man of his walking stick' than someone who looks lean and fit or middle-aged and paunchy.
