Meanwhile another near miss. Alligator broke into a lanai and moved into a swimming pool.
What would you two suggest that a "smart person" would do? Perhaps be aware of your surroundings. Tip toe to the lanai door, carefully look around, then quietly head towards the pool to look for an alligator. Sounds like that's the way to be safe. That sounds like the smart person would have to live life in fear. That's awful.
Being aware of one's surroundings and being cautious is simply being smart and safe so one does not have to live in fear.
Alligators are absolutely not the only thing that people should be watchful for, but they are one of the things one is least likely to encounter.
