I didn't say all this to the person in question. All I said is that the same people who go "Oooh, Jersey Street!" think that we live in a dangerous neighborhood, and yet neither one of us felt it was so risky we shouldn't be out at dawn waiting for the bus.
The biggest risk on spay/neuter day is that you'll die of boredom. It's a long wait between when you gotta show up to be assured of a spot and when the van arrives!
