[RC] Guns/protection - Juli Jakub

Just my thoughts. I will not carry a gun for personal reasons although I have no problem with those that do so responsibly...I prefer a knife. No one is going to pull me off my horse if I slash their face and boot my horse outta there. I also know how to use it on the ground and will happily gut someone that tries to kill me or otherwise seriously harm me. I do not like violence and my knife comes in handy for eating cheese, cutting branches and any number of other things besides protection which makes me feel that it is useful beyond just being a tool of violence...but I know how to use it for that if I ever need to...Kenpo is a martial art designed around using the body and extensions of the body...staff, stick, and then knife as protection...it is cool and there are other ways to learn knife fighting too. Just another thought that does not involve packing a gun which I personally do not like and am not comfortable with. But good for you to all who feel comfortable and responsible enough to carry a weapon such as a gun. Cheers,
Juli
