Self Defense

[Rachel]

I'm sorry I took a good jab at you there. Hope you arent French lol Being that this thread started as self defense lets get to the heart of the matter. First and foremost is your mindset. The will to survive. By whatever means neccesary. Surrender isnt an option in my book. I'd rather go down swinging then die on my knees. If you have a choice of a weapon to defend your self with what would you choose? I'd take a bat over a stick. I'll take a firearm over the bat. I'll take a large gun over a smaller one.

I have a little story about security. We have a house security system. It can be turned on of with hand held remotes. One of the buttons on the remote sends a silent alarm to the Sheriff. One day I came home shortly after my wife went to the market. I walked into the house with no alarm, went upstairs to my office and checked my computer. As I was sitting there I heard a noise downstairs. As I walked out of my room, two police officers pointed their guns at me and shouted "freeze". Needless to say I froze. I was shocked and asked what was going on. They said there was an emergency alarm here. My wife had intended to set the house alarm instead she pushed the emergency silent alarm button. I had a rifle in my room, I wonder what would have happened if I had come out of the room carrying it. Needless to say ,we disabled the silent alarm.

I don't noticed a good jab, it's more that you have a wide open cover for counterattacks in your most statements. Like: your will to survive against never surrender, even it means you die for one dollar then giving it unharmed away to a predominant robber.
I stop responding to you in this thread, because I think if I start it would easily escalade. If you really want to force out my opinion to your gun views, you have to create a better fitting thread and only eventually I would post there one or two things.

I remember reading an article about Col. Rex Applegate, the author of Kill Or Get Killed, and He was talking about how he was walking down the street when two thugs tried to mug him. All he had was his cane and he whupped the shit out of them with a well placed strike to the head and groin.

Something is better than nothing.
