OK, this poll is totally for fun, because I'm bored and because GD needs something a little less serious tonight.  Pick which you would prefer to have (you have nothing else except your clothes) when you confront a home invader at 3 am.

No family at home; just you.

Does not compute. If I'm wearing pants, I'm armed.

Is the airsoft gun all-metal construction? Buttstroke.


FYI I voted knife.

Swords, knives, blunt objects,  bottles,  my rock collection,   my dog if she doesn't try to jump in the guy's car and go for a ride,  my bare hands,  whatever's handy that could do the job.

Pepper spray followed by a quick kit to the nuts.
Then he's going to eat what ever weapons he had on him.

I would go with the airsoft.  It looks scary, and they really hurt when you get shot in the face.

4-foot piece of 1.5" black iron tubing - my favorite "cheater" pipe where exceptional torque is needed.

A pocket knife is a great tool, but I've got to tell you, those collapsible batons are grrrreat for self-defense.

Yup - that would be what I would grab, although I'd hate to get blood on the blade.  Would the police be upset if I had already cleaned and oiled it when they arrive to pick up the body?

No base ball bat? I have two, a little league one and a full size one. I also have a cheap pocket knife or a dumb bell could work too. My airsoft is broken or uncharged

Canned food....LOTS of it.

I don't care HOW bad you think you are.  Take a couple of (Un-opened) 12oz Bushes baked beans cans to the head at 60-70 MPH and get back to me (When you regain Consciousness) and tell me how "Bad" you is.

the golf club . because it has much more reach than my folding knife, scary kitchen knives, and is more sturdy than my standing lamps.

Two words-

Attack Kitty.

She's vicious. I hop her up on catnip. It makes her easy to manipulate, and strong enough to lug around that big AK.

Insert obligatory Caturday picture.

Wow, I was the first to pick cell phone.  I'm convinced I could thoroughly barricade myself long enough to either escape through a window or wait the guy out till police come.

I voted G2 Nitrolon. You can make almost anything into a weapon. You can't make everything into a flashlight.

And in a dark house, the Surefire can be a weapon.  Good choice.
