I wanted to think onhow to properly respond to this one. Guy has a blade you have a baton. If guy makes it threw first couple wacks and can get close enuff to you and cut you he wins. I have gun guy has blade. Guy walks towards me with blade. I point I shoot I dial 911 tell them to send the meat wagon. Yes I am sure I will go to jail that night untill the figure out exactly what happened. But im also sure I wont be bleeding from a knife wound.

I have some respect for you, so I am not going to get in a pissing match, but will say this. You all have your way and I have mine and I know how I fight with or without weapons.
