Do you carry a gun? - Page 4

I haven't used the pepper spray simply because I remember how hard it was to use mace without getting some yourself. Has the directional qualities of the pepper spray been refined a little?

I guess the solution would be to find somewhere such as your backyard to practice spraying and see what can be done to minimize the chance of you getting some in the eyes.

That might be a good idea. But its still tricky stuff.

No I do not carry a gun, I think that sometimes that can cause more damage than good in situations, self defense is a far better way to go and being aware of your surrondings.

I live in the UK, so obviously, I do not carry a gun. I have no real problem with them, but IO hope they aren't legalised in the UK, simply because it makes it to easy for the 'bad guys' as such top get hold of them as well.

It goes from professional robbers having guns, to a mugger having a gun. Which is all helped very nicely by the number of violent crimes commited in the US compared to the number commited here. No offence lol.

I live in Europe and hope that guns are never legalized to any point in my country like they are in teh States

I refuse to buy a gun for any reason. This was a choice I made before having children. For me fear can do some really terrible things, and I would hate to hurt some innocent person.

That said, I do have mace, never had to use it before, but I feel a little safer than if I didn't have anything at all.

I keep a handgun in my car. I've never had to use it, and I hope I never have to. However, It's nice to have the freedom in America to carry one. In some places, it may be the only way to protect yourself.

I have my own gun always tucked in my car. So you can say I always have it wherever I go. I don't know why, but it has always the way my family is. I have been oriented with guns ever since I was 6 years old. And the very first rule is to always keep it from anyone. Only my family and I know where the gun for the designated car is hidden.

I don't have a gun but I intend to get one when I get of age though...I'd need to get a license first though.
