That way I can be pleasantly surprised when my other tactics work and an attacker decides they really don't want to mess with me.<BR/><BR/>This post only covers the scream because that's the part I kept getting questions about after I wrote the first self defense post.FarmGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07109427921448753169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7375883121749958694.post-10693030313752270022009-02-11T07:05:00.000-07:002009-02-11T07:05:00.000-07:00...if an attacker is big enough, they can sit on m...<I>...if an attacker is big enough, they can sit on me and pretty much neutralize any real physical threat to themselves.</I><BR/><BR/>Have you considered joint locks? I believe Jujitsu uses a lot of joint locks. They are the great equalizer, sans gun. A tiny/weak little person can take on Mr. Steroid. <BR/><BR/>I'm not saying you won't do jail time though.

If they can give chase you might be better served by continuing plan b ( plan a was not to be involved anyway ) . Now at 6-0 and about 220 lbs i cant really do the emotional thing with small ladies such as my wife or daughter .Farm.Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383613366815582389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7375883121749958694.post-57907380849533898722009-02-09T13:14:00.000-07:002009-02-09T13:14:00.000-07:00Screaming does no harm.

If you have ever seen a couple of stray cats going at it you have a good idea what grabbing her would be like .
