On a serious note it's pretend you're not alone. That's your mate at the end of the street and you need to and that into your phone very loudly, and tell your dad when there's an unusual man at the door even if you have no dad because he died years ago. He's still looking out for you.

Exactly, or you can use it to lock/open the gun cabinet or open /lock the door to aid in your escape, see the list is endless, and that's just a key, throw in a shoelace and nobody could defeat us.. Just like Macgyver and he doesn't even get his hair wrecked, be like Macgyver!!.. grin

Or to spare yourself that put on a man's clothes and pass yourself off as a teenage boy. All woman kinda look like teenage boys when in men's clothes. And this is for the scenario where the country has recently lost a war and there are lots and lots of occupying troops.

The biggest thing about self defense is not to get yourself into the situation in the first place... awareness of your surroundings is key (street smarts).. some people have it naturally.. some don't...but if the situation arises, it's better to be judged by twelve than carried by six wink professor

It's a good idea to learn how to attack and defend with various salamis. Then, if trouble breaks out at the delicatessen you'll be prepared for it.

laugh thumbs up

Some self defense teachers always talk about this caliber vs. that caliber...
Or "if you shoot the perp here you may miss yada yada"....
45 or 9mm...shoot em in the hip line and they'll flop like a fish...
But it's not the caliber as much as the length of the barrel... when the adrenaline is jacked up to the roof, you can miss with a "conceal carry" type of pistol...
But I do like a 9mm...it saves the eardrums..
Especially in confined spaces professor uh oh laugh
