"When It Comes To Self Defense, It Is Better To Have The Power And Not Need It Than To Need It And Not Have It."

It’s always better to be safe than sorry. If you carry a self defense weapon with you, you may never have to use it, but if there’s one time you have to use it, you’ll be happy you had it. Always have some sort of self defense weapon on you at all times.
