52 years and have yet to be in a situation where anything other than smarts and requisite brawn were necessary. Even an incident when I was confronted with a man and his 9 mm. last summer. Brains and reason win out.
The eternal argument for everything to do with being prepared, ‘well, I haven’t needed to yet’.
Wow, you’re awesome!
I doubt you have a corner on Brains and reason.
I have been around longer than you and I have been in situations where they would not have been enough.
Still making friends I see.
Carry on...;’)
My 46 years will tell you there are times you either take a few licks or kill a man. Brains or not. I have taken few hits when legally I could have killed the person. In the end I knew if my foe carried it to far he would die but it was my choice. My brains knew I could take the chance because I was armed. My atracker never knew, Funny I took a few hits from him to save his life.
There are animals out there and your brains won’t win against some peoples brutality.
“52 years and have yet to be in a situation where anything other than smarts...”
Oh, the “yet” word. 58 years and have yet be in a situation where I needed to draw my weapon, because I’m so smart and strong too, not to mention handsome and charming. That doesn’t make me want to leave it at home.
