    Are you packin?

    I keep me a tazer up in my blazer.
    You never quite know when someone will challenge you and what they will have on them.
    I like to be turn victimhood into attack like one time when some guy tried to steal my car.
    I played weak and then swooped.

    He'll have 2 years to plan his revenge.
    In prison.

    nothing. round here you don't have to be paranoid when you go to walk at night.

    a tazer would be nice though. how do you get them here anyway? disassemble and send bit by bit in the post? there are a few scumbags around the place who could do with a good belt off it..

    avoid the mean streets and go down the safer ones
    mind my own business and look vaguely cross

    tasers are illegal. How do you know the guy is in prison; is it as a result of trying to steal your car? If so you obviously lied about your illegal weapon, assuming this was in Ireland? You're quite smug about it too.

    sombody forgot to tell those silly criminals that weapons are illegal, maybe with a little reminder they will stop carrying weapons. ( sarcasm over)

    tbh if im facing a life or death situation its up to me to protect myself the best way i deem necessary at that moment, essentially until that threat to my life is eliminated im not in the least bit concerned what some judge will say about it being legal or illegal

    "better to judged by twelve than carried by six" eh?

    i don't agree that carrying a knife makes you safer, unless you are a skilled knife fighter or something, and it also makes you a silly criminal too i think.

    anyway what annoyed me about the post was not the "i carry a taser to feel less insecure" thing it was the self congratulatory tone as though tasering someone or carrying one is something to be proud of. Or that lying to get someone sent to prison is somethign to be proud of: I might be reading too much into the post but it suggests to me that he went to the guards about the guy afterwards. If he did he would have lied about the taser. So he's a liar - so how do you know he really was in danger or that the taseree was trying to steal his car at all.

    Same here... The shockwave when it hits the ground usually knocks people flat on their arse.

    I'm seriously considering a sidearm.

    Will wait for the results of Nordyke v King, 9th Circuit Court of Appeals should be hearing that in the next month or two. If that comes out as I expect, things get a hell of a lot simpler here in California.

    NTM

    I hang around with Steven Seagal and Chuck Norris a lot. Who needs guns?:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    The guns keep me safe no matter what the circumstances.

    And I don't mean firearms.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28 TheEnforcer


    Has the OP been watching to much "cops, cars and criminals". I do not feel one bit unsafe as I walk the streets of this country.

    I've always wanted one of those flip out batons you see in movies.
    Theirs like an 8 inch long handle, but it slides out till its about a foot and a half long and you can whack people with it, looks fun

    I protect myself by making really unfunny stilted comments (like many of the previous few posts).

    My aim is just to show what a kerrrrrrrrrrrrrr-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyy person I am, and then they will leave me alone.:p
