1. Get into good physical shape. Put down the Oreos.
2. Purchase a firearm. Learn to use it.
3. Get a concealed carry permit.
4. Actually CARRY the firearm. Be prepared to defend yourself.
Things are going to get far worse. If you are attacked and carrying, you have a far better chance of survival.
Bottom line: Michael Brown is dead and Darren Wilson is alive.
6. Teach yourself good situational awarness and use it. The best defense isn’t CC, it’s not being in a place or situation where you have to use it.
