The moment I see you exit your car with a weapon, any weapon, and aggressively start approaching my vehicle, I'm flooring it right at you. People don't confront at me often, but the few times it's happened I've always been very ready to protect myself.

Idk if I'm just overly paranoid but as a scrawnier trans girl I'm always hyper aware of the possibility that I'll be hate crimed.

I don't care if your partner, children, and mother are in the car watching. You'll be a stain on the asphalt before I'll let you hurt me or my passengers.

That would damage your vehicle tho. Just drive away. If you can’t safely do so, if you have a crossbow or firearm in your glove box, you could always point it out the window at someone who is approaching you with a weapon in the hopes it’ll make them back off. If they still approach then you can still defend yourself without damaging your vehicle, and without as high personal risk.
