premise of which part?
cities?
lol at that typo
@roadcrypto yeah. Whos gonna win when its knife vs gun?
i didn't say "don't have a gun"
``` you go in the woods, you bring your gun.. you have one nearby in case something shows up.. but on me all the time? ```
I have a few guns but not gonna conceal in Oregon. They'll spends thousands just to convince you in this state, even if your in the right.
if you're in a city and you need a gun... wouldn't it just be a better idea to gtfo?
if i'm rural, why would i bring my gun to town? i should know a good handful of my neighbours
@roadcrypto thats the plan, but for now its where I'm forced to live for work and school
I'd rather be a warrior in a garden, then a gardener in war.
@roadcrypto sorry for misinterpreting what you statrd before.. Im horrible with text lol
stated*
you can still have your gun nearby. it seems that having it on your person 24/7 puts you in that frame of mind of needing to shoot anything that moves
all good, @KenneticEnergy I'm wrong sometimes too
@roadcrypto not if youre of sound mind and have training
if i say bullshit, i expect to be called out on it
Having a gun on you doesnt make you more inclined to use it.
Especially if you're properly trained in the use of them
it makes me less inclined to use other means, for sure
if someone shows up at my house drunk and annoying, its easy to point a gun at them and "have control" - but it doesn't exactly hone our talking skills
Well, the thing is situations can escalate from non-violent to violent to lethal in seconds. Seconds.
A gun is far better at incapacitating someone whos assaulting you than a 🔪
or physical prescence of don't fuck with me
confidence in the eyes goes a long way
Not to mention police are gonna take 5-7 minutes to get there
During which time you might be dead
yeah, i wouldn't use pocket knife against someone, lol
get a godamn stick
grab a chair
police?
it takes them an hour to get here 😂
When it comes to self defense it all boils down how to you articulate it when questioned and in court.
@Rhunespire depends on where you live too haha
Here in CA its guilty until proven innocent
well. i personally think cities are death traps waiting to happen.
@roadcrypto I agree. Which is why I plan to prep and move off the grid asap
off grid is over-rated. don't go isolating yourself too much
unless you're one of those power house chads that can build a cabin with an axe in a day
No no... Just fsr enough away but not too far from other potential survivors. Like those in this community haha
off grid up here is different than down there though
