Like, I'm a pretty anxious person. I want to be able to protect myself but at the same time I think having a gun on me would just make me more nervous.

If you've ever thought "I want to shoot all of these people" then you probably should not have one in public or ever

I wouldn't worry about it. If you want one, go for it.

I refuse to be a victim of a hate crime. it is hard being gay in rural ohio. I don't have the coordination for a martial art, so wouldn't a gun be the best bet?

do they make special guns for gay people?

if you feel goosebumps and a surge of power run through you when you pick it up, you probably shouldn't have it

See if balisong knives are legal where you live. If not, get a standard folding knife.

Balisong/butterfly knives can open as fast as a switchblade and can be flipped in tight spaces making them useful for mugging situations. You have to get close and look like you're losing then flip the blade and slice their arm then gtfo.

Never pull out your weapon unless they threaten and strike first. You should avoid confrontation if possible as it should always be a last resort. You never know how capable your opponent is.

Also still look into martial arts...they are basically designed for students to attain the necessary coordination.

oh yes, of course. It would only be an absolute last resort. I know you don't just go waving weapons around.

If you don't understand that using a weapon that you carry is a last resort, and that it isn't your job to be a hero, you should probably not carry a firearm.

Sadly, I know way too many people who carry that honestly don't believe either of those.

If you believe that guns only exist to kill other people, then you probably aren't mentally stable enough to own one.
