6. pepper spray?
I wouldn't be comfortable with a firearm personally, but I've never had a stalker either. Protect yourself however you feel is right. Good luck and stay safe!

8. Or at least a loud whistle
Edited on Thu Mar-08-07 05:27 PM by Poiuyt
I suppose hiring a Pinkerton guard is out of the question?

10. She has pepper spray, and honestly, I'm going to bug her about getting a gun.
I KNOW she'd be comfortable with a firearm.

13. It's not so much being comfortable with the firearm, but being comfortable with actually using it.
If you can't say to yourself that you'd pull the trigger on a human being without hesitation, then you have no business carrying a gun for protection. A real bad guy will take that gun away and not hesitate to use it on you.

14. Yeah, I know.
I've talked this out with her before, and she wouldn't hesitate, trust me.

I've known the girl for years and she rivals me in "don't want to fuck with me-ness."

15. Well, if she can say that honestly to herself, then go for it. I've had this same discussion
with my wife and she's not as certain as I am about pulling the trigger in a time of need.

17. You have the muscle mass to put an extendable baton to good use?
Or a knife?

If not, get yourself a gun.
