Agreed. I like the fighting 2 ppl is 4 times harder, 3 ppl is 9 times harder, 4 ppl 16 times harder way of explaining it.

PepperSpray has worked for me and i continue to carry it with me.

My two legs. As I age it's not as effective as it once was but I usually leave earlier nowadays before the serious stupidity starts.

If you feel you need to be armed to go out and have a good time, you shouldn't be let out.

To answer your question, my hands will land faster than the time it takes to pull a concealed weapon for a start.

your hands dont hit as hard as .45 ACP... especially 14 rounds of .45.. and it takes less than a second for me to draw my XD from my IWB holster with an extreme cant and double tap your ass...

Think about what you're saying. Are you actually going to argue that an unarmed man is better able to defend himself in a violent confrontation than an armed man? Absolutely preposterous.

You wouldn't see a guy while argueing with you reaching into his belt/behind/into his jacket?
Stay out of those situations then.

If he's reaching, during the time it takes to pull there's still time to hit and prevent him from drawing.

Have you really timed yourself and it takes less than a second to unclip holster, release safety catch, and squeeze a trigger. I dont think so.

No, I didn't write that.

In fact, only a moron would suggest such a thing.
