when you travel alone are you afraid of being raped, robbed or even kidnapped?

why or why not?
how do you cope with it?
I'm fine, but i had that conversation with a friend today who was trying to tell me that i'm being reckless and he'd suggest that i'd better be more prepared for anything happening.

always carry a pepper spray or a dazzler gun when you travel. Most important is that mobile ,creditcards ,valuables are protected. .be ready for eventualities .

@KA9ha Are dazzlers legal for civilians?
KA9ha · 31-35, M
@BlueVeins is being raped legal? Will you look at legality in self defence?Even a knife is acceptable in court oflaw ?
BlueVeins · 22-25
@KA9ha It's not illegal to be the victim if that's what you're asking. What a strange question. You'd be better off carrying a weapon that's legal AND effective instead of some crazy military shit if you wanna stay safe.

@BlueVeins dazzler is not military product ,,,it is a civilian market product. and stuns the foe.
Military pointr gun is an Amnesium rubidium laser which virtually blinds the sharpshooters

@KA9ha From what I'm reading, dazzlers can be sold to military, police, & security (which is technically civilian I guess, but not useful if you're just traveling 'n' shit). Tactical flashlights can be sold to anyone, but that's a different thing. I have one and they're pretty cool.

@BlueVeins Legality ruling::: Legality. [u]TASER devices are considered the same as firearms by the United States government for the purposes of the Second Amendment protection, the right to keep and bear arms. They can be legally carried (concealed or openly) without a permit in almost every state.[/u]

@KA9ha Electric shock weapons (which, I assume that's what you mean considering that TASER no longer has that name) are different from dazzlers dawg.
KA9ha · 31-35, M
@BlueVeins please read thru the para...TASERS will shoot pellets to a distance of 15 ft. and [u]stun gun[/u] will shoot high voltage shocks of a few KV into the attacker.

@KA9ha It's a little strange to refer to conductive wires as "pellets," but it's irrelevant anyway because a dazzler shoots photons.

@KA9ha @BlueVeins i wouldn't carry a dazzler gun. Most probably i would carry a pocket knife for general usage, like cutting food and stuff and that'll be it i think.. ?
KA9ha · 31-35, M
@BlueVeins unfortunately they are not simple photons but laser energy oriented photons which will blind the target at short distances,,,,,permanently damaging the vision
BlueVeins · 22-25
@elafina Problem with a pocket knife is that in order to use it effectively, you have to be about close enough to touch the assailant, and if you're close enough to touch the assailant, they're close enough to touch you. If I were you, I would carry either a pepperball gun or pepper spray.

@KA9ha what would you think on carrying a medium-big size dog with me? or would it make it difficult?
