Protecting Yourself/Home without a gun?
This has gotten on my nerves so much lately just because of how ignorant some people are when I talk to them about it. Basically I’ll be living on my own pretty soon and I’d like to learn how exactly to protect my home, myself, and my belongings. When I bring up my fear of getting attacked or worse to someone, they’re always quick to say I should get a gun. I don’t blame them at first because I know it’s honestly an easy solution, but it does aggravate me that they don’t realize how many people are scared or have trauma related to guns. Even thinking about them makes me nervous and I hate having to disclose my personal trauma to someone I’m acquaintances with. The reason I get so upset is because it’s happened more than once, and when I say I don’t like guns they come at me like that means I’m going to go to their house and throw away all their guns lmfao. I’ve always had anxiety with regards to loud noises, so that combined with intrusive thoughts and PTSD would not make a good combination for a gun owner. Basically, I’d like alternatives to owning a gun but still with the ability to feel as safe. I have a dog who is quick to alert me if he hears anything that doesn’t add up, but other than that I don’t have anything else to protect myself. I hope this doesn’t come off as rude or anything because I’m genuinely wanting to know how to protect myself, I’m just tired of the people in person that don’t offer much of a solution besides getting a gun.

I am Looking for books on how to defend yourself against someone with firearms.
I am looking for books on how to defend yourself against someone with firearms. I am not looking for fly-by-night books that tell you to parry this arm and then throw them this way. I have MMA, BJJ, Boxing, and Judo experience. What I am looking for is books that are designed for professionals-maybe private investigators or servicemen, or some other group of people. And I am looking for books that discuss how to do so without possessing firearms yourself (if there are any).
Thank you for your time.

The psychology of self defence: How to channel aggression to overcome fear?
So today I got accosted by man who was very angry and clearly mentally unstable/delusional irrational but very aware and in control of himself.
Verbally trying to diffuse the situation wasn't going to/ didn't work because he was irrational (he wanted to attack me because I was a white man wearing black clothing and to him that meant I was racist)
I believe he had a knife due to the way he kept his body around his right jacket pocket.
I did stuff I've learnt through hard learned experience (London is a violent shit tip) and from reading.
I kept distance, I wasn't aggressive, I looked for escape routes and for other people and I was in a very subtle athletic position - ready to fight or run if he got off his bike.
I thought I was going to have to fight or run.
Obviously this was very scary.
I managed to stay as confident sounding as possible and he eventually got bored and went.
When I was younger I'd have freezed and got assaulted by this obviously predatoryan. Nowadays I don't. But... My adrenaline spikes massively and actually interferes with me making a choice on how to act.
I'm lucky that any self defence situation I've been in I have been alone and only had to think of my own safety.
With a child on the way and London getting increasingly divided and violent I need to learn how to channel controlled aggression into violent action.
How do I learn to do this because if I'm with my wife and child running isn't an option
How do I channel aggression to overcome fear and act in a different way to what my adrenaline wants me to do?

Protos-M v. LightTuck?
Does anyone have experience with these kinds of soft training knives? I'm considering them for some pressure testing & self-defense related training but have limited experience with this design of training knives (I've only handled the floppy rubber ones up until now). Thoughts?

Getting my CCW next week
How do i get over the fear and intimidation of fighting ?
This is something that still happens to me often even after taking so many martial arts classes.
I still feel fear or intimidated to fight even though who i'm fighting is either just as good as me or more and sometimes even against lesser skilled people. This doesn't only happen in self defense situations but also in classes like when i'm sparring specially against more skilled people than me. My heart starts pounding faster and i don't know when should i strike to defend myself.
Is there a way to get over this and be more confident ?

Being stalked : What to do ?
I think I have been stalked recently, when I went to another town nearby to go have a medical appointment. I'm afraid it will happen again. What should I do ? I own a gel pepper spray that can be concealed into a sleeve ( with the little clipper ), but that's it when it comes to self defense.

Axis elite questions since their CS won’t help.
What Are the Signs that Someone Will Sucker Punch or Randomly Attack You?
I'm an Asian and living in an area where hate crimes against Asians are being all over the news here. A lot of these incidents are cases where the victim gets punched or attacked out of nowhere from the suspect. We, as normal humans, would usually just mind our business when walking in public. But now, I'm putting myself up for high alert before I ever get hit by these dumb idiots. What are the signs that someone is preparing to attack you? Body language? Dead eye contact at you while they are getting closer to you? Surrounding area is empty and has no CCTV? Their face is completely covered with a mask and have a hoodie on? Let me know everything that you know please.
