Self Defense
How much are self defense courses and what type of non-leathal weapons are there?
(In the U.S) I’m young and I’ve been thinking about having my Mother and Sister take a self-defense course and then have them carry a non-lethal weapon (for self defense) in case anything were to happen.
What are some self defense weapons other then tasers and stun guns? and how much would a self defense course cost?
Thanks.
Anything you carry on you can be used against you as a weapon. Things like pepper spray are fine if you know when to use them and have time to get away.
There are places that offer free self-defense classes to women. You’ll just have to call a general information line in your community or become more involved. Try asking the YMCA. My community offers them free (mostly for gays and lesbians) but *anyone* regardless of orientation can take them.
If you really want to protect your family, make sure they never have to defend themselves in the first place. I suggest, “The Gift of Fear” by Gavin DeBecker. He is the nation’s leading expert on violence, predicting it, and avoiding it. The book is for women.
