My proposal -- keep a dog, ideally multiple medium-sized dogs. That is what gun-owners do in South Africa. Four Rottweiler-sized dogs can scare off practically any intruder by giving the suggestion that they can act as one bear or Big Cat. No animal can swing so quickly from being a placid pet to suggesting that Man is on the menu as can a dog.
A hint: when the Nazis took over they quickly prohibited Jews from owning dogs. Cats were OK for suppressing rodents, but dogs would easily figure out what Nazi scum were up to.
Defend yourself like an animal. Bite -- a human bite is about as severe as a dog bite for bite force alone, and it is arguably the filthiest bite in the animal world. It requires prompt medical attention. Kick, for your legs are about as powerful as those of a horse. You have the same right to defend yourself that a dog or a horse has.
When I was at college in the 1970s we college students rarely were victims of crime. A woman who told women how to avoid rape showed how to use keys to improvise a bear-like claw; it is brutal. Hey guys -- you would do it for a girl that you feel something for. You'd be surprised how 'wimp' character evaporates if someone you love is in danger from a mugging or rape. Don't forget that college textbooks and (we didn't have those then) laptop computers make excellent weapons for pummeling a thug.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
