I don’t like strangers. And it doesn’t make someone any less of a stranger just because they live next to you. I used to know all my neighbors. I got very familiar with all of them. That is until Freddy had to move out of his place. His family was getting too big. And he couldn’t handle all the nonsense in the house. So he moved out and the guys that moved in don’t seem trustworthy.

Freddy says they’re ok but I’ve got a family to protect and I can’t just go around letting bad guys take over my block. That’s why I decided I’m going to get some way of protecting myself and my family. I’m going to get a shotgun. I probably will never need it, but just in case.

I got approved with a background check but I can’t get approved for a loan. It doesn’t make any sense to me but my credit isn’t so great. I found car title loans in Oakland, California online though and that’s going to give me the money I need to get my gun. An auto pawn loan was the right thing for me since I needed it.

Now I know that I got protection. I trust Freddy but not the same way I trust my shotgun
