If it's to be prepared to use it for self-defence, then that is by definition out of fear. You don't prepare to defend yourself if you don't fear you might one

If it's to be prepared to use it for self-defence, then that is by definition out of fear. You don't prepare to defend yourself if you don't fear you might one day need it. Just like you don't buy insurance if you don't think you might one day risk needing it, though that isn't normally out of fear.
- meowster 6y agoWhatever definition you're using is generalizing, and is incorrect. You're assuming you know what I think or feel, and you're wrong.
- Daho0n 6y agoNo I'm not but I'm not surprised you won't admit it (maybe even to yourself). That you carry a gun just like someone might carry a set of paintbrushes because they might just need them some day on the road is hilarious. Of course it is fear. Okay you are correct, there's another option: that you have a hard on that you might some day get to use it. So three types: those that are afraid, those that think it makes them cool and those that want to use it.
