  • unarmed protective accompaniment?

    Why waste money and time if you can't even take some guns.. A couple of white people would make them more of a target not less rofl.

  • @etopla Actually unarmed protective accompaniment is highly effective and has been saving lives for 30 years in some of the most dangerous places in the world. It is not based upon skin colour but on an array of factors that deter an aggressor from carrying out a threat. For more info about how it works go to the PBI main website
