What's crazy to me is that I dare say, most, hikers are so against guns that they would almost rather be raped or chopped into pieces than carry a firearm for protection.
Foolish in the extreme.
I know folks who have said they would prefer such treatment who then were victimized. In every case they changed their minds after surviving their victimization.
Yep. Hiking sticks don’t work well against a machete.
I don’t go anywhere without a gun. If I can’t take my gun, I don’t go. Some may label it as paranoid, but I just call it being prepared.
