I don't usually carry. So I have to be cautious with my interaction. Especially in Texas
It is easier to diffuse the situation without escalating it. Which is always the preferred option. I'll take a punch before throwing one. Self-defense is much easier to justify in court vs assault. Just cause the guy can't take a punch and got dropped doesn't mean I didn't act in self-defense.
