I'm wondering what you mean by "all that goes with it." The responsibility, cost, CCW, training? For me, being able to defend myself is THE most critical aspect for survival when faced with an imminent threat. I can't imagine NOT investing time and money for that level of protection. Having spray is nice, but sometimes you have to go to DEFCON IV.

Just sayin'...
