Armed and Dangerous?

When you walk/hike on streets, paths, etc... Do you carry a weapon? If so, what?
Personally depending on where I am and what I'm doing I carry anything ranging from:
an Asp (Extend-A-Baton)
to a hand gun.

G26 strapped to my waist if I'm going alone, and at night. It's like my Amex card, I never leave home without it :laugh:0

Only thing I carry when On a night run or bike ride is my Rape whistle... on weekends.... just condoms.0

Im from India. Never owned a gun....but i would if i could.
BUT..we women were taught to carry red chili pepper powder in a section of our bag and hoick a handful in the assailant's eyes. ( my gramma's tip ):laugh:
In my teens...when i would travel in a crowded bus and get 'poked' at by men behind me....i would step backwards with my 4 inch stilettos and grind the point into their feet. No one bothered me after that .
In my 20's i didnt live in India, but i would carry a little shiny pen. It had a blade that slid out when i pressed the button.0 -
I think I would like to be adopted by your gramma!
Both good tips! Thanks for sharing.0 -

If you were to attempt to provoke my rape whistle...I would immediately destroy said whistle and show you why I'm a BAMF0 -

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.0 -
dorky looking dudes don't usually get fccked with in the crazy hoods I grew up in...it's always the dudes walking around like a bad *kitten* that need to worry about stomping thru the hood0

My grandmother's advice;
One night a man was following her as she walked alone. She turned around, walked back to him, and said; "Don't I know your mother?" He turned and walked away.0 -
Any one of the Following:
Para Ordnance Warthog .45
S&W Bodyguard .380
Ruger LC9
S&W M&P .40
Ruger LCR
Glock 23 (Official work business outside of patrol...court, training...etc)
Glock 22 (Duty weapon)
All depends on the mood, attire and situations lol0 -
If I go out in my truck I have 2 guns in it. If I am on my motorcycle just the pepper spray or my taser. However I would also stomp on whoever it was with my heels.0

Wow! Where do you all live? The only place we need any kind of weapon is in the woods when we're hunting or camping.0

What is the world coming to?
No weapon other than what nature provides, but never had a need for any.
