If I was able, I would carry 24/7. Carrying for protection is a passive means of self defense, just like being situationally aware... you're not going to do something unless somebody else gets stupid.
I would absolutely assume that somebody standing within 50 feet of me, waving a melee weapon to be a potential threat to my health and safety and would react accordingly if he made a wrong move.
Wasn't too long ago that a man here in Ontario was kidnapped and shot by 2 douchebags after he listed his truck for sale on Kijiji...
Just happy to be here.

That's awesome Tom.
I like that saying Sharon.
Police came earlier I did my report. Officer went over to his house, he refused to answer the door. Officer said if he stepped forward I would've been justified in using force.

" An armed society is a polite society."
Where does that saying come from ? It's a good one I have always liked. Robert Heinlein said that. He is one of my favorite authors. I have more of his books than any other author. Keith

The complete quote is
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life. Robert A. Heinlein
I agree Heinlein is a great author I have I believe every book he wrote
�Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks.� ― Robert A. Heinlein
