Portable Protection
Tuesday, January 26, 2010
A few years ago, I was mugged by some derelicts as I got off the bus. People were too stunned to help and I sustained some minor injuries. Luckily, I survived and wasn’t hurt too terribly, but now I have to think about my personal safety when I leave the home.
A friend of mine had some advice for me to feel a bit safer when I’m going out to work, one of which was to carry folding knives with me. It’s not quite as messy as carrying a gun and completely safe, but it can still provide me with the protection that I need when I’m just trying to get out of the house.
