Ok, guys, today is 8/15/2016 and the big news item today is that Milwaukee police shot someone. The BLM rioters started attacking any car that appeared to have a white driver in it. Currently, I do not carry a gun in my car. I worry about the police pulling me over and having some sort of misunderstanding. I worry about the summer heat warping something on my S&W M&P .40 compact or warping the ammunition. I worry about leaving my gun in my car while I'm at work and then having my car broken into and the gun stolen. I have an Indiana Concealed Carry Permit.
Furthermore, I don't even understand how to use a pistol in self defense in my car. A mentor I once had wanted to go shooting in the rain, but he didn't want to get rained on. He lined his car up with his target and rolled down the window. Then, he positioned himself and shot out the open car window. The sound of the gun inside such a tightly enclosed space caused him hearing loss for a week, and that was one shot. What would happen if I was trying to fire off 3 or 4 (or a whole clip) of ammo because rioters had me stopped?
Can you guys please tell me what to do or alleviate my fears? I have no intention of letting rioters or protesters pull me out of my car. I'm starting to think the best option is to just hit the gas and drive over people. How do you defend yourself in this situation? Is it safe to fire a pistol from such a tightly enclosed space? Do I need an extra magazine in the car or is the sound of the first shot going to send rioters running from my car?
