This quote reminds me of a comedian I once saw who said "If guns kill then pencils cause bad spelling" A gun is just a tool, its the user that determines the outcome.
But I do highly recommend self defense courses too. My Dad was a karate instructor in addition to being a police officer so growing up I had a vague familiarity with those methods & my DH is, although in the medical field, he is still in the Navy and has been with the Marines and Special Warfare communities so he's had to take a few courses in hand to hand combat and disarmament. Plus those guys are big on continuously learning stuff like that so it seems like every other week he comes home excited about some new move he learned.
