Life isn’t fair. It throws stuff at us that we would never expect. Knowing the volatility of the world today is one thing, but doing something about it is quite another.
Why every woman should have a firearm and know how to use it
Unless you’re a transgender “female” weightlifter women are outperformed by men and boys in physical pursuits on a regular basis.
According to Duke Law: “Just in the single year 2017, Olympic, World, and U.S. Champion Tori Bowie's 100 meters lifetime best of 10.78 was beaten 15,000 times by men and boys. (Yes, that’s the right number of zeros.)”
I point this out to emphasize that in a confrontation it is highly unlikely an unarmed female will be able to hold her own against a male attacker.
A firearm levels the playing field
A high percentage of robberies from 2019 were committed by an armed felon. Why do you think that is?
Perhaps it’s because even they can see that a firearm gives them a significant upper hand over any unarmed victim.
However, if you are prepared and are able to show that you are capable of meeting force with force, you can decrease the likelihood of being a victim.
An attacker has an inherent advantage in that they are already mentally prepared for what is about to occur. They have laid out the situation in their mind of how this will go. Anything you can do to disrupt that flow will work in your favor.
