The crux of the issue.
This is dangerous, but I feel the need to record it down.
The problem with *** *** is that it could happen to you or me. Or anyone who ******* *** ****. But of course, we don't know ***** *** ***** ***.
And with no ***** ********, we could ******** ** ********* until the ******** is ********* that we're ** ****** a ******.
How would you feel ***** **** ******* if it happened to your sibling? Your relative? Your partner? Your friend?
It could happen. Right now. Today.
