I like the cat at the end of the video coming in for a little play time.

Good info in those videos.

I met Clint once, I had no idea he was a gun trainer. His wife Heidi is a quilter and I was delivering a quilt frame that a friend makes. At the time he owned a Cz distributorship and was promoting the Steel Challenge. They were a nice couple, interesting people, but it was not untill several years later that I found out about the gun connection. DR

To each their own. I carry all of that everyday minus the BUG.

In fact I just got home and emptied my "pockets."

It's practical for me. And I am the only one I'm worried about. Everyone else is free to do what they wish.

No rappelling gear or rebreather?

Or a change of underwear?

we have a higher risk of needing a change of underwear than we do needing a gun...

Emergency rations = 3 crayons

Why three? Because one is none, two is one, and three is glee.

It's not about the risk; it's about the stakes.

I tend to agree that can be a lot of hardware that may not be suitable/practical depending on your situation. Having what you don't EDC at least being readily accessible is a 2nd best option. Either at the office/locker/desk, in a vehicle grab and go bag or other...

For what it's worth....the orange crayons don't taste much like an orange.

And the green ones are NOT Lime-aid flavored…. I visited Camp Pendleton, ONCE!

Green is my favorite flavor.
