Ftom14cat: Maybe mathman's a jedi... you'd never know, because he may have his concealed jedi permit... gotta keep the criminals guessing!
Seriously though, I think it's possible for someone to use their brain to diffuse most situations before force is ever employed... once force is employed you can use your brain to escape in some situations, but a tool such as a knife or a gun is certainly going to do a lot for your odds... your brain should be your first line of defense though.

Your contemptuous sarcasm seems to know no bounds. Apart from lampooning those among us who find they don't feel quite comfortable to go without arms now that they're used to bearing them, was there any NON-sarcastic point to be made by starting this thread? -azurefly |

Hey, Wild, I sometimes go unarmed through an entire day. Gets the ole heart pumping, eh?
As exhilirating as that is, I have to admit I'm glad when I finally get home and feel safe again. Gun in every room, you know, and three in the garage. Like right now, I find comfort in the fake CD drive in my computer. Press a button, and it pops out not a CD platter but a hidden Makarov, just in case I need to download some rounds into a BG. Anyway, be safe and don't make going unarmed a habit. Bad habits are hard to break. |

Model 25...in Iraq with no gun??? That Stinks. I'm a recent CCW permit holder and I don't carry 24/7 yet (waiting for after X-mas to buy a smaller gun), but I do feel naked without at least my gerber folder.
