73. Someone75:

That was a very immature statement. I am a fairly big guy and an ex-boxer with years of martial arts training, but I haven’t seen enough movies to make me think I am macho enough to stop a couple of attackers (with or without weapons) on them using my bare hands. I certainly wouldn’t risk the life of my family, friends, or an innocent stranger on my macho skills.

I wouldn’t be happy about it, but I would feel much more prepared for the situation if I had a firearm on me to help deter the threat and to even the odds if absolutely needed.

I have defended innocent people being attacked more than once, in ‘nice’ parts of town, and have never had to draw my legally carried firearm.
