It seems to me that you all are concerned with protecting your own asses. What about our loved ones?
When my wife wants to take a walk with our little one, they take Jack, an asshole Jack Russel that wants to kill everything but has no stature to stand behind, and they take Daniels, a bloodhound, now she can do some damage.
But most importantly, they have my Cel phone number.
I will take a second look at what is available, but my gut tells me that the most appropriate weapon will be a Cane. I’ll just have to show her what are the best methods to us it.
Gimme your address and I’ll take lessons too.
