Well, I attended the first of 2 classes in self-defense.
Last night's session was a lecture.
I came away from it feeling like I had handled the situation I had been in (with co-worker Mike) well.
So, that was good.
There were mostly college students in the audience.
When the officer asked us if Rape was a 'deadly force situation'. I was the only one who answered with a very firm "YES."
So, I am glad to see that I feel so strongly about it. It helps me believe that my strong feelings will help me defend myself if such a situation arises in the future.
I am looking forward to the 2nd part of the class. The officer dresses up in armour and we get to beat on him.
