But the problem is that, often, people who wear none don’t seem to physically fit with the perceived high strength vibe given off by none. My small build friend sometimes wears none and acts like a big shot and does “big things”, he will get his ass kicked by guys, he is acting bigger than he really is.

I totally agree with that. I’m just thinking from my perspective. If I WERE to plan on jacking/hurting someone, I would want to keep my distance and would not want to be associated with my target before, during or after. Which would mean my target would be too far for me to smell. I agree that if a person is giving off an aura that he can handle him or herself well, I’m not going to be the fool to prove it. xD

Yeah i can actually see that happening..makes you a little over confident at high doses.All some guy has to do us see them as “cocky” and they are gone…young guys love proving themselves in fights.

Im ok with none but im an “oldster” (to borrow martin Amis’s term)

Young guys are better off buffering low doses with something like instant gent

If you live in such a dangerous city, AndrosteNONE and guns will not help you.

Just pack your bags and go somewhere else.

Reberto here is another idea from a cops point of view…

Now this is not illegal here as long as it doesnt have a marking as “Blank Police” or any word stating police

Just do this buy a T-shirt with a badge in the corner Preferably Gold meaning your Ranked… Then buy a gun and place it on a body strap.  
LOOKING like a cop from a distance

Thugs are scared of one thing and that is athority they wont shoot at us unless they have a death sentance. I’ve never heard a cop getting robbed in uniform.

NO AND DONT PRETEND YOUR AN OFFICER THATS ILLIGAL

Oh wait this might not work where u live 🙂 not ur not in the usa

well this might be a bad idea i take it all back I can see 100 reasons why this could turn out really really bad

I suggest getting zips etc on your pockets for a start.

Make sure your wallet is **ALWAYS** in your front pockets and NEVER in your back pockets.

So firstly, make sure you can’t be pick pocketed.

Then I suggest taking up a Grappling based martial art. A striking one could end up with you seriously injuring them, and getting charged yourself.

I suggest Ju Jit Su or Judo.

[YouTube - Ju-Jitsu Clip SHow](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPUafDDa7tk) Is a fairly good JJS video.

[YouTube - best of judo](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=be-BoM-WokY) is a fairly good Judo video.

Just to let you know, when you do join a martial art you have to buy a yearly license for insurance etc. This license also covers you from the authorities in case you ever use the training in public. You need to issue warnings such as “I know Ju Jit Su, so you may be hurt if you fight me” 3 times for example.

Have a drive around your area and look for a good martial arts. If you try it and it’s not working for YOU in 2 weeks, or is boring you join another style or club.

If you can locate a LICENSED Jeet Kune Do club near you, I highly suggest it as that is based on street fighting and if you get it done at a licensed club you will be training with people taught by the great Bruce Lee him self.

I think they go for around $2500, not including other charges that you need to license it 😃.  
But IF that’s out of your price range, you could prolly get a Glock for ~$500.

Hmm, very pricy & it haven’t include other charges to licensed it. Yes, for the glock i will think about it but not getting it now anyway. My country doesn’t permit buying guns or even owning one as it is considered dangerous so maybe when i live overseas, i will get one. Does the price 500 include licensing or not? & how much for licensing a gun like in the UK or US? Thanks for the reply Eldro 🙂

Hi Streetarson, 320 for a glock. That’s a good price. Does it include licensing or not?

You might not even be able to own a firearm depending on where you live. Thats one thing I love about America, you can own guns and shoot people that step onto your property without your consent 😃 (at least in texas. . . Texas ftw!). But if a democrat gets elected president , we may not be able to own guns, or there will be very tight gun control laws, cause: GUNZ R BAD :retarded:.  
@Phatsounds: depending on how you buy your firearm (retailer/private) costs may differ. Here in Texas, to buy a gun, you have to get license from the police department and get registered there too. Then when you go to buy the gun, you have to wait for like 2 weeks while everything clears up. I don’t know the extra costs involved. If buying private (like over a forum) you just pay for the gun and you’re done. And remember, having a gun is not enough to keep you safe. Go take some classes and maybe a advanced class, well worth the money. You may get taught by an ex-spec forces guy.

So i see it is like that in the US. I get it now. Hmm, not easy to own unless you buy privately.Well too much risks to own a gun, it’s not worth it. I changed my mind & give it a pass now. I agreed with you Eldros guns are bad. It can either protect or harm you one way or another by the way you handled it. And yes owning a gun is not enough for your own protection, i see here u said take some classes you mean martial arts classes right? I was thinking about it too. Yup if you are lucky you might be taught by a veteran. Good advice Eldros 🙂 Thanks 😃
