By this time I am thinking, "This is stupid. What if the person in the

makeshift weapon .... piece of wood .... anything, but there was nothing.

Every nearly every farmer has a shotgun, traditionally a 12 gauge
double on nails over the kitchen door, handy to the barnyard and any
chicken hawks. Even in the Soviet Union at its most repressive,
farmers had a shotgun. Better get one. A pump or semiauto is good.
