Tools

We have a lot of tools that are available to us for self defense. Among others, we have chemical weapons, impact weapons, hands and feet, and we have firearms. In the face of a deadly force encounter, I feel that firearms are still the most effective means of stopping that deadly assault. It is the easiest tool that equalizes the weakest and most vulnerable among us. With that power comes responsibility. We should train with our tools and become proficient and safe. We should store them in a safe manner, and we should stand up for our rights to carry them responsibly.
