It’s california, CCW permits are May-Issue (I.e., very rare) and open carry is banned. It’s less likely that assaulting random civilians will get you shot there

It’s california, CCW permits are May-Issue (I.e., very rare) and open carry is banned. It’s less likely that assaulting random civilians will get you shot there than in, say, Texas.
- klipt 7y agoHow about pepper spray? If assaulting random civilians got you pepper sprayed half the time, that might be a deterrent.
- jopsen 7y agoA) Deterrents don't work very well, rarely work at all with desperate people, and far less with people who have mental issues. B) if you end up in a conflict it's always better to run. It's safer for you than to escalate. In sane countries failing to run can invalidate any claim of self-defense. Thus, you'd find yourself on the hook for "armed assult". Even if you state or country is crazy enough to have a "stand your ground" law, you are always better served by running away or de-escalating by other means. Your ego might be hurt, but that is rarely fatal :)
- CompanionCuuube 7y agoReduced mobility means running away doesn't work very well. :) In sane countries, a victim isn't revictimized by the courts for having the audacity to defend themselves either. :)
