I know I bang this drum a lot, so here is the mid-song drum solo:
It never ceases to amaze me that the people who dedicate hours, days, weeks, months, years and decades of training in the physical, mental and emotional training of the martial arts...spend pretty much all their time talking about carrying knives, sticks and guns.
Can you fight or can't you? If you can't, and if you really doubt your empty hand that much, what the hell have you been doing for all these years? Probably collecting knives and searching the web for special self-defence pens.
Walking round armed to the teeth is not the only answer to self-protection, it is the answer of the martial arts scaremonger machine. If you really are that worthless in your confidence and attributes, you'll probably **** it up anyway and land in jail or the graveyard.
Its paranoia, insecurity, and an abject lack of faith in your training. Learn how to have a fucking fight.
