[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 287295, member: 4264"] Thank you muttmeister. We have no guns. But I have bear spray with me. Keep phone with me at all times. S/O is a machinist and has many parts here made of solid steel. Never considered them as protection before this. But we've each found a part that fits in our hands comfortably and could be used to help protect ourselves. Police made it clear that if this guy gets close to us somehow and is harming us or about to harm us, we can use whatever measure it takes to stop him. We can use whatever force or means needed to stop the threat, but nothing beyond. in other words, do anything to keep safe, but once he can't hurt us, say we knocked him out cold or something, we must stop and call for police. We can't turn vigilante and wildly beat him as he did to my S/O. They told us if it was THEM they'd stash knives in easy to reach places as well, invisible to others but known by us. I can't do that. Stupid huh? I could shoot someone if needed to protect my family, I'm kind of glad I don't own a gun or know how to use one. But I can't picture living in my own home with knives stashed everywhere. the thought of using one to protect myself doesn't offend me. But I somehow know I could never use a knife on someone.
