Meteor strike - where I live, a nut drove hundreds of miles just to shoot up a supermarket. He had body armor and unfortunately the armed security guard didn't go for a failure to stop procedure, just shot the vest. What more of a black swan event do you want and if the black swan flaps near you, a J isn't optimal. It is rare. So is being hit by lightning - I've been. It takes little effort to wear a decent belt semi and an extra mag. Again, the J is for a Bug or concealment constrictions that necessitate pocket carry. And they are not as easy to shoot. We know that from expertly conducted research. Of course some poster will claim be the J frame Robin Hood/William Tell of his domain. I shoot semis and Js in equivalent matches. The semis are easier and faster.
Those who say - teams of commandos - that's just a BS rhetorical conceit. There are plenty of two to three shooter incidents out there.
What steps have you taken to prevent being struck by lightning again - and how would you respond to someone who tells you they aren't enough?
