For many, they are the only option. Women and the disabled cannot defend themselves against a male attacker in most situations. They're not a crutch, but often the right tool for the job.

And that's the mentality that leaves you entirely unarmed and at the complete mercy of others. Nice.

You're making an awful lot of assumptions about my position and have a weird argument. Invent a better weapon, I guess. Good luck with that!
