Everyone is more or less at risk of experiencing violence during their life. This is especially true for minorities, and as leftists in today’s political climate. The risk of violence will undoubtedly increase as political climates change, so we must be ready to defend ourselves, our comrades, our family and friends, and our communities.

I practise Krav Maga (I know) and have a limited background in wrestling, Karate, and Judo. It would be great to hear everyone’s thoughts on strategies and tactics for self-defence so we can help each other become more prepared to face violent situations.

If there’s enough interest in the topic I think it would be a good idea to start a community for self-defence.

    I’d recommend buying pepper spray

    It’s illegal here after some women used it to steal jewelry, almost every other thing that can be used for self-defense is illegal except for very bright flashlights, might buy one ig

      I would not give a fuck if it is legal or not, you probably can get it anyway, and it is better to be safe, but I understand.

        If there’s one rule Algerian police doesn’t give a fuck about it’s not this one, it’s an item that will get confiscated at the border if bought from outside and is illegal to manufacter.
