And while i wont get into a pissing match w/ TYWD, it is an unfair assumption he makes:

Since you dont know how many thousands of rounds i've shot, or how many hundreds of hours i've trained in open hand & weapons self defense, dont count this girl out.
I grew up in the Newark - New York City suburbs many years ago. I know that if you try to cooperate with someone who has a gun to your head there's a 50/50 chance that he'll kill you anyway. You have a 60% chance of surviving if you can dislocate his knee with your foot, and a 90% chance if you can drive his nasal bones up into his brain. If you get the chance you'd better take it.
