She’s in denial if she thinks carrying a stick would have deterred what happened to her.
Amen to that, brother. That's no different than an acquaintance of mine who, several years ago, had an armed home invasion just a few houses down in his neighborhood. I talked to him about home defense planning, perimeter zones and dissuasion/hardening, practical firearms for the purpose and where to get training. His final decision was to buy an aluminum baseball bat and leave it in the coat closet in the foyer. :banghead:

Maybe I should add this to my signature line: "Always exploit every technological and tactical advantage." Even our Middle Paleolithic ancestors 100,000 years ago made spears with flaked-edge stone blades; even they had better options than than just carrying a stick. :???:
I like the logical progression. Carry a stick, carry a big stick, carry a big long stick, point one end, add a flint pointed stone to an end. Add a sword in your belt. And a knife. Substitute a rifle for the stick. Substitute a hand gun for the sword.
