Agreed man. I've had the misfortune of being involved(involuntarily I'll add) in a couple of alterations involving weapons. Absolutely fucking terrifying, and I have a lifetime of competitive martial arts experience to fall back on. I can only imagine it's even worse or your average person or for those of smaller stature.
Being able to effectively defend yourself is imo an inalienable human right. In a violent or aggrevated event you can and should assume the worse of your assailant as IME by the time true intent is established it's often to late.
