PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO ACTIVELY SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF THE GAME AND ARE PREPARED TO HANDLE WITH SERIOUS ISSUES AND POSSIBLE INTERRUPTIONS OF GAME FUNCTIONING. Let’s follow the lead of countries like Canada and find a safe alternative for limited gun use in our society.WARNING: THIS GAME IS EARLY ACCESS ALPHA. ![]() Techniques taught by self-defense instructors are built on principles of quick response and utilizing one’s strengths to overcome those of larger stature. Contrary to Tobais’ assertion that “thousands of dollars and years of self-defense classes can’t protect you”, learning to use your own body in response to a threatening situation is the BEST way to protect yourself. This is not to say that we should not take steps towards enabling ourselves against violence, but guns are not the answer. The United States has developed such a culture of fear (see Bowling for Columbine for more on this) that many women feel they cannot walk down the street without looking over their shoulder where some women feel it necessary to make public statements about protecting their families with deadly force.

Tobais claimed women face daily “harassment”, warranting the need to carry a gun. First and foremost, the founding fathers of this county were anything but feminists! Women were not afforded the right to vote until 1920 (144 years after the signing of the constitution) and in its original form, the 2nd Amendment did not apply to anyone who was not white, male, and a landowner.
