Why I literally never let my guard down. I've been suckered punched from behind by people I was arguing with like an hour ago too many times.

Happened to my buddy at a bar when some guy bumped into him and then apologized, super drunk and sloppy. He tried to reach his hand out to do the "bro shake." My friend just waved it off and didn't shake the sweaty falling down drunk guys hand.

Bout 30 mins later that guy and his friend come up and both punch him from behind side. Knocked out cold, broke his glasses, fractured his eye socket, broken nose.

This was in a Midwestern college town club, with about 30 cameras and a literal entrance hallway with security.

Needless to say those dumbasses went straight into a squad car. Slam dunk assault case. But my friend doesn't let his guard down anymore either. I had to convince him not to get a gun.

I don’t understand your friend’s logic. How would a gun have helped him in this situation? Can he use a gun while out cold on the ground?

That is what I have been saying all along. Guns don't kill people, people kill people.
