    I should add that I've never even seen a real gun or mace/pepper spray in person. Well, other than attached to the belt of a police officer. The closest thing I have to a weapon is a nail file in my purse. If anybody tries to steal me, I'm screwed. LOL!

    For you people in the DFW area, I was working really late one night and headed home about 2am on a weeknight, I had to stop at 75 and Lemmon on the east side of the highway for gas. Sure enough I didn't have anything on me and this gang banger starts walking up with that "hey man let me talk at you" crap, I pulled the gas pump out of the tank and squirted a little his way and told him he was about to have a really sh#tty night if he didn't turn his happy *kitten* around. Surprisingly it worked, but I learned my lesson.

    When I took the Glock Armorer's course, we were told Glockenspiel was the sound to listen for after the weapon had been completely re-assembled to know that everything was in its place LOL.

    My hands and feet. I'm a 2nd degree black belt in Taekwondo, but I also have some training in Ju Jitsu and Aikido. Simply hurting or restraining someone is easy, but I can also paralyze/knock out someone if needed from hitting certain pressure points.

    But I'd like to buy a taser, as there's only so much a 5'2" girl can do.

    Figured you were skipping with it instead of jogging. Pretty sure that'd be a deterrent ha ha!

    After reading this thread, I'm tempted to take some shooting lessons and buy a pistol

    After reading this thread, I'm tempted to move to the UK or Canada. Much more civilized.

    I feel LESS safe with everyone around me packing.

    I lived most of my life in a country with everyone around me 'packing'. I didn't realise how tense it all was, till I moved somewhere that just didn't have that culture.

    I know where I'd rather be.

    Pepper spray & tazer. I walk almost everywhere.

    On a side note...one time TSA missed my tazer and I made it on the plane with it. True story. I freaked when I realized mid-flight it was still in my purse.

    Learned from Jeffree Star xD don't watch if easily offended!! http://youtu.be/0VhD9WCMlOg

    You guys are just scary!
    Every time I read these threads I am incredibly grateful that I live in a country that doesn't have the kind of weapons culture that you sem to relish in the US.
    Frankly, I've read enough of these threads now to make me not even want to visit the US again.

    It's not that I relish having to carry self defense around...but I live in an area where there are a lot of people drugged out of their minds and I just prefer to be prepared. I truly hope I never have to actually use anything on anyone.

    As for the serious gun toters...well all I can say is you guys will be my friends when the zombies begin to take over.
