packing?

[Kaliix]

I think it would be foolish and impractical to carry a fire are to the field. A knife would be easy enough to carry and conceal but that would likely end up causing more trouble than it's worth. Most people don't know how to use a knife or when to actually deploy one. If you are feeling threatened, you best best is a cell phone.

Other than at your car, you best bet is to just leave. It is most always the smartest thing to do and is what you are legally required to do if you can.

I suppose one could carry something in their car, but short of someone approaching you with or pulling out, a weapon, your better off getting in your car and getting the %$#* out of Dodge.

I personally believe in the right to bear arms but have never felt the need to.

In the Dominoes case, having been a driver for them, I would have just given them the money if no weapon was displayed. If a weapon was displayed and I had the means to defend myself, I wouldn't hesitate to do so if I judged it to be appropriate. While I feel very bad for the second driver, saying that someone shouldn't defend themselves because the perpatrator might hurt someone else in the future is specious logic at best and I strongly disagree with it.

Everyone has an inalienable right to self defense, if one chooses.
