Yet Another Self Defense Thread

[Hantavirus]

If you live somewhere that buying a gun is something you need to "look into" any more than going to the local gun store and telling the boomer at the handgun counter you need self defense against vicious nigger dogs, then this may not be possible, but you could look into a Taser or pepper ball guns. They make Tasers in variants all the way from the full size high-vis model carried by police down to a tiny form factor stun gun. Pepper ball guns tend to be on the larger side but dependence on jurisdiction there may be less paperwork to acquire and carry them.

If I was in the US I'd probably carry pepper-spray if anything.

I don't think I'd want to kill anyone and get in legal trouble, so carrying guns or knives wouldn't be my choice. This is of course assuming confrontation is imminent, I don't go out provoking others or escalating on purpose.

But if someone gets too violent and a situation is inevitable, pepper-spray should be fine, even for dogs (depends). Well, I'd look at the laws of the state, are you allowed to kill a dog if it bites you? What is the consequence for the other person?

I mean, I've heard about the retards that have shitty pitbulls and can't/don't control them, so maybe a knife in those cases would be fine? But you'd have to balance that out with maybe the police getting too nervous around you if they know you have a weapon, even if you're not doing anything.

Throwing something that has actual integrity is going to hurt someone wherever it lands. Glass bottles are great makeshift nigger knives. A basic hammer for nails or a wrench is going to hurt. You can easily stab someone with the point of a pen. Steak knives still have a good stabby point if you don't sharpen them. Pans are also fantastic blunt objects.

If all you have is your fists and you can't run away, left jab to the abdomen, right in the liver: it actually sends people into shock, for those of you who don't know. You're grabbed from behind? Right elbow. I advise not being grabbed at all or trying to grab. The ground is hard and you are soft and squishy. Don't risk it.

Nigga we are "allowed" to kill people if they bite us.
There's a common saying in the US (often used to justify carrying a gun in states you do not have the requisite permit or as a convicted felon, but it applies more broadly to any self-defense situation), "it's better to be tried by twelve than carried by six."

But that has a lot of problems on its own.

Even in the US you have something like proportional force to the threat you're facing (or you think in good faith you're facing), and what about when you cannot prove exactly what happened and is not on record/camera (meaning, the nuance of the situation and if it was justified).

Like someone entering a restaurant where you're in, and threatening/robbing you with a fake gun, then you shoot them when they they're not looking, that's no problem (I think this happened in Texas, and was recorded by CCTV cameras, which is why I'm bringing it up as an example), vs you being threatened with lethal force (but not yet injured), and you shoot them, but you cannot prove who started it.

Also what happens if you're not carrying a gun, a dog bites you, then you stab the dog, but it is argued by the owner that it's you the one who stabbed first and then got bitten?

Yes. If it’s a pit bull the cops will probably give you a pat on the back and “good job”.

being threatened with lethal force (but not yet injured), and you shoot them

If you are in fear of death or "grievous bodily harm" you may respond with lethal force. Almost all states allow this unconditionally inside your own home, most allow it anywhere on your property (the "Castle Doctrine"), and some states do not even require you to make any attempt to retreat or "deescalate," whatever that means when being assaulted by a cracked-out nigger. Many states also permit the use of deadly force to prevent the commission of any felony against you or another person. It's called "Stand Your Ground" and reflects the common American idea that it's not my problem if you value my wallet more than your life, and you should always expect to "find out" if you "fuck around." A well-armed society is a polite society.

but you cannot prove who started it.

Maybe, but cameras are everywhere, and dead men don't take the witness stand. And again, wouldn't you rather justify your actions to a jury of your peers than leave your wife a widow, your children orphans, etc.?

There’s only a handful of Duty to Retreat laws and it’s the faggiest ones. Not even California has it.

CO gets memed on but it’s “make my day law” gives you identically the “NO duty to retreat” laws of the more based states.

No it doesn't. If you're dead, you're dead. Nothing else matters. Everything is over. If your life is truly in danger, you don't have a choice. 20 behind bars is still better than 20 on the ground. It's an absolute. There is no contradiction or justification to this.
