If you are the average American, I can tell you are coming a hundred yards or more before you have any chance of knowing I’m in your path.

I can choose to let you pass without incident. Or I can select to ‘greet’ you.

The only thing I ask in return is that you buy some food, either at the grocery store or on from a link on this website, and get some storable water, and put both away in case of an emergency.
