I don't think I could use a knife on someone to defend myself? The thought of driving a weapon into someone's body with my hand kinda' freaks me out a bit, it would seem too intimate and personal to me, I think? I could be wrong???
As far as firearms go, I'm confident in firing them and would not hesitate using mine to defend myself/my family IF I had to. I keep one in my bedside table and the other in my handbag. My handbag is either on me or close enough to me 99% of the time.

You can achieve anything, if you believe in yourself!

I always tell my wife to hold off on the "we're out of the country!" posts and pictures until AFTER we're back home.
(then again, 99% of the time she ignores me and posts it all anyways... but whatever, the most valuable thing in my home is electronic stuff, and that's all easily enough replaced.)

I agree. I rarely post photos up of trips on FB. I went to Paris in 2016 and just posted a pic that I took of the Eiffel Tower only a few weeks ago due to a stupid corona FB challenge I got sucked into.

If push came to shove and someone was threatening or hurting your children/family I think you wouldn't have any problems with it.

Sounds like the worst self-help book you've ever read!

I was carrying my full size MP 40 but it just didnt feel comfortable as my everyday carry. So i picked up a Ruger EC9S. Smaller, light and less imprint when i carry.. I also have a Taurus public defender for home defense.

I carry a 2x4 in one hand and an American flag in the other.
Effective, functional and practical.

You're more than likely right; it's just a psychological thing, I believe... the whole making eye contact, being close, and just worrying about whether or not I stood a chance with someone bigger/stronger than myself and then the knife being turned on me or even worse, my family. I had a couple things happen to me in the past and it didn't come out in my favor.
My eldest carries pepper spray (the good stuff). She works days and evenings and has to walk / ride her bicycle by an isolated area sometimes at 2, 3 am.

My first post and I'm gonna be a d---, I hope CK never owns a gun because he clearly hasn't done any, and I mean any research on ownership and responsibility.
By example, he has no understanding of manual of arms by considering a M&P as a 1st carry. The second is considering a 22 for a carry weapon.
Then let's refer to security of said firearm as mentioned.
Do your research or stay out. You are the one who shouldn't own guns because you obviously haven't approached this in a logical manner.
I'm sure CD has nothing but anecdotal stories about his experience in the gun world, as evidenced by his posts.
As far as politics, this thread is a farce. It's every bit political and there's no reason to say otherwise.
Please Cardio, please dont buy a gun. You are clearly a statistic.
