my body...


I have in the past used 911. Please don't laugh at me. I am kinda of dumb but kinda of smart. I carry wasp spray in my car it shoots 20 feet. I don't own a gun. I am afraid I would be shot before I could shoot. I am not sure how to protect myself anymore?

I protect myself with a phone by dialing 911
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1691552


I have had my home broken into and had to call 911 on occasion. I am living in an area where my police are still looking after the public. I have nothing bad to say about their response and my being protected at a time of need.
I just hope that doesn't change!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21427364


I've held people at gunpoint and called 911...you should see the response time when you tell them that ;)

Re: What is your choice of weapon to protect yourself?
YB,

If your serious about protection, there is only one device made for true personal protection. That is a concealable pistol of no less than .38 caliber/9MM.

Decide if you will be the type of person who will become very proficient and will diligently practice, or become the kind of person who wants a minimal level of instruction then will not ever again touch your gun unless you need it.

Semi-Auto pistols require a lot of practice and a deep understanding of how it operates. You need this knowledge to learn how to re-load, maintain and clear jams etc.

If you are the type to only touch it when you need it, I recommend a smaller 5 shot .38 Special revolver. Something like the Smith and Wesson Model 640 in Stainless Steel.

Keep it close. Practice until you can consistently hit a grapefruit sized target after running 100Yards.

Re: What is your choice of weapon to protect yourself?
If you believe that the coming changes will create much havoc, then you are contributing to a mass-mind thought-form which is growing. That is not a criticism of you but merely a commentary of truth. It is possible that such events could occur. It is possible that they could threaten ... and it is possible that they will not.

If one focuses upon what is desired, what is chosen, does this not contribute to it as a potential result? Aren't the entities in the Earth children of God? If they are, then is there not that same power of God within them?

There will be sporadic and localized situations of intensity, perhaps in the next twenty years. (These are not imminent, as we perceive the Earth.) Thus, the purchase of a weapon seems irrelevant. In addition, the possession of one such is a thought-form unto itself. The temptation, should it arise, to use it is yet another thought-form. The results of using it against another is still another thought-form. Pause for a moment here and think about that. All of those thought-forms are potentials within you. They are potentials within every entity in the Earth. Should they be claimed or denied? Only you can answer this.

We can tell you this: If the worst events happen as you have described them, owning a gun will not prevent what you intended to prevent. Think about that, and hear the truth in it. It might forestall it. It might create a solution for one singular event or challenge here or there but in the sense of a longer term, it will not accomplish what so many believe it would.

Follow your heart. Open your heart. Listen ... hear.
