i always carry a knife on me, if not two. just in case, i mean you never know right?

a friend of mine asked me why i carry a knife, i told him for self defense. i the asked him why he didnt carry one. and he told me that he gets emotional and stupid during confrontations, and that he knew that if he were to carry one there would be a chance of him using it on someone over something stupid, so he he refrained from carrying any kind of weapon. this guy doesnt train.

i asked another friend of mine why he doesnt carry anythig for self defense. he told me that he had had a gun a pulled on him 3 times in his youth, each time it was someone taking his money. he told me that each time, he made it home safe because he did not fight back and complied with the robber, and that he feels carrying a weapon or trying to use one may just end up getting him killed instead. he has no training but has been in a number of serious fights and bad situations.
