Ah the old "a real man would fist fight the intruder" idea.

What makes a knife a better self defense weapon? The fact that I have to get much closer and expose myself to the intruder?

Doesn't have to be a knife... And killing isn't mandatory.

When did I say kill? Does it matter if it's a knife or a bat? Either way you expose yourself to far more danger. A gun is primarily a deterrent that's only used in the worst case scenario. It does that far better than a knife ever can, without putting you at risk.

does actually. in a shootout a family member could get shot. If you have a gun is because your gonna shoot it which means KILLING. Otherwise what's the point of having it in the first place? If it's a true deterrent don't put bullets in it so you wont have to kill.

It doesn't. You didn't reply with why it being a knife or a bat matters. You just went on to say why guns are bad. Most robberies don't end in gunfights. An empty threat is fucking useless. What will you do with an empty gun if they decide to attack you?

That's why a bat/knife is better. Very little risk if any of collateral damage and just as good to threaten with. Well since you said it's for a deterrent than they wouldn't know if the gun was loaded or not so it's just as good unloaded.

Do you really not understand the difference between a gun and a knife? Try fighting someone who wants your shit. That knife is not going to stop them before they charge at you. Even worse, all they need is a larger physique and they don't even need the weapon.

"they wouldn't know if the gun was loaded or not so it's just as good unloaded." I'll concede this, but what do you do when the bluff is called? Give up and get killed? A knife is inherently less dangerous, you're either stupid or purposefully ignorant if you say i'ts the same.

It's not the same of course. But it's safer in the sense that theirs no collateral damage of innocents in a fight and less risk of death. (but not eliminated)
