Courtesy of Law Dog, we find a nice tale of a gal who was accosted by an irrational aggressor. I don't know that she didn't have a firearm handy, but she did respond appropriately with her cane. :cool:

"Several people from various cars noticed and I saw one man begin to... well, Da's a retired Marine and the Prime Geek has worked in firearms training, I know what an unobtrusive unholstering looks like."

Good for him...

"He got a cane to the instep and then a fast pull UP towards the inevitable halt. A small halt, but a halt. Dropped his ignorant butt onto the ground and watched the gentlemen who had been coming towards me grin."

and good for her!

Atta Girl!

Glad to see she didn't "freeze up".

She knew "when" it was time to fight... and she knew "how" to do it with the tools at hand.

I have posted here before that the "Cane" can be a very effective weapon to carry.

At the least.... one other person knows that now as well. :smile:
