    Or at least take a pocket knife or something. Knives for self defense are generally not the best because people tend to end up hurting themselves with them, but just pulling a knife out could be enough to scare off a group of scumbag teenagers.

      If you don’t know how to fight with a knife, that’s a good way to get your knife stuck into your gut.

        Well the idea is that it wouldn’t come to that. It’d be better to have a knife and hopefully scare the teenagers off than have them beat you to death.
