Tammi asked this question in another thread, so I thought I'd start its own thread. It's an important topic.<br /><br />Quoted:<br /><em>"</em><span id="post_message_1275472102"><em>My Private Investigator friend is encouraging me to get a handgun for protection if I insist on traveling alone. Is that something you other single girls have done? CA Laws are more strict than other states; what are the requirements if you're traveling through other states?"</em><br /><br /></span>(I'm not comfortable with a guns so I'll be carrying flare guns (one up front and one in the living quarters.) They are legal every where and can do some serious damage. I also carry a tazer and will have some for sale at the RTR. These are not legal everywhere, so researching locations and legal issues is necessary. When I am in states whene they are illegal they will simply be taken apart and packed away.<br /><br />Mostly I rely on my dog. Arsholes are generally cowards and stupid and prefer easy targets. A dog complicates things. The exception to that rule are the zombie tweekers and other drug addled minds. <br /><br />This is one of the discussions the women's group at the RTR has. Bring your questions. I'll also add that some of the women that have attened that group in the past have been on the road for years and only a couple had any negative or dangerous encounters, on the road or boon docking in the middle of no where. Some of those encounters may not have been bad, but their gut told them to GTFO.
