Two for one: Scared of getting hurt tonight; scared of the virus

Today there's a vigil of sorts in our very small town, which will be briefly attended by a couple dozen people over 65. Unfortunately, men with big guns show up to similar events in the small towns as a "counter protest". Can't say it isn't intimidating. In two of the other small towns this has happened, and in one, a friend told me the gun bearers were not even from the town.

I asked an 84 y/o and 73 y/o if they want me to walk them to the event. Scared out of my wits, and that's WITH a positive response from our new Sheriff (he's going to show up at the invitation of the "geezers" for the vigil).
