Thank you for this essay. I have been feeling a low-grade level of PTSD because of what is happening in our country. I need to take action so that I don't feel totally helpless. Thank you for providing a couple of things I can do to make my neighbors feel safer.

"Low-grade PTSD" is such an accurate description of how I and many other people feel. I'm glad I could help.

Have you met my therapist? He's very effective and is happy to take on new clients (‘cause he's kind of a slut that way)…
