    an Asp (Extend-A-Baton)
    to a hand gun.

    you a cop?

    If backpacking I have a knife, but as a tool not a weapon. other than that no, I can talk my way out of most any situation. I have done a lot of election work walking in all sorts of neighbor hood and never came across a time I was not able to resolve or lessen a tense situation. and that is with me being a dorky looking dude in heavy gang neighbor hoods.

    just lucky I guess.

    Loving the profile pic!

    Me... I walk with a 3ft stick and know how to use it lol. Only time I take my knife with me is if I'm walking in the woods or if my son is with me. I will do whatever is nessecary to protect my son.

    What is the world coming to?

    No weapon other than what nature provides, but never had a need for any.

    If I see some suss people looking for trouble I change my route.

    For those that don't have the option for lethal force carry, I always suggest a Kimber Guardian Angel

    .380 semi-auto pistol, concealed (permit)

    Edit:
    When I lived in Anchorage (for close to 20 years), Alaska, I was on the wrong end of two separate armed robberies and, another time, came home from work one day to find my front door had been pried open and my house burglarized. All terrifying experiences. The burglary was the worse one. There is nothing like being afraid to open your front door when you come home from work. That's when I bought my first handgun and had it ready when I came home. Unlock the door with the left hand with a cocked gun in the right. I learned how to use a handgun and also bought a legal "shortened" shotgun (for home protection). I know exactly what I would do if I were in my own house and someone came in.

    When out walking, it would be really hard to know when you must use a deadly weapon. If I see someone following me I could get it in my hand. The part that bothers me is; I would never start waving it around and threatening because someone might try to take it away. When do you shoot? Wait until you have injuries or get shot yourself? If someone grabs you out of the blue, you are pretty much screwed unless you are physically able to fight back. A person could get in big trouble if they make a wrong judgement call in a perceived "situation". I now live in one of the safest towns ever, but having lived in some dangerous places, I don't put myself into uncertain situations unless absolutely necessary. I hope I never get in a situation outside my home, because any hesitation could be a fatal mistake. Act too quickly and who knows....

    when hiking in the mountains, I have a wistle, k-bar and pepper spray. have never had to use it and all the bears I have encountered have been uninterested in us and hope it stays that way.

    I don't really ever carry it, unless I'd like to shoot at some snakes (or the occasional deer), but I have a .357 revolver. I <3 that thing. :)
