Pretty sure I read somewhere that people are more intimidated by bladed weapons than guns because a gun can only hurt in one direction.
Idk if this is true though it was a while ago that I read this.
Sorry I couldn't hear you as I STEPPED BACK SIX FEET AND NOW YOU CAN'T HURT ME
Ever heard of the 21 foot rule?
Well, easier said than done, if they're chasing you specifically.
A police officer is a weapon.
A soldier is a weapon.
These are weapons wielded by the state that kill vastly more victims than common criminals with guns or blades. VASTLY MORE by massive orders of magnitude.
People are intimidated by the tools when they should be concerned about the weapons.

Liar. The nym-shifty trolls (you) are tiring. You'll have to nymshift again. [blocked]
