Gun-Free Zones? Carry One of These.
It’s all the rage! Seniors and others are learning how to fight with their canes. Don’t laugh! Senior Citizen Cane training has swept the nation as crimes against the elderly have skyrocketed. Until now, geriatric citizens were afraid to even take a leisurely stroll in their neighborhoods.
ENOUGH! Conservatives tell government to SHOVE it!
Most states now have elder abuse statutes on the books. Here is a summary of the Texas law: “Under Texas law, elder abuse is defined as any form of sexual abuse, physical abuse, emotional abuse, exploitation or neglect on a person age 65 years or older.”
So, if you happen to do some serious damage to a punk with your cane, you are pretty much in the clear, depending on the circumstances.
“WEAPONS of WAR:” How we could lose the Second Amendment

It’s not just Grandma and Grandpa
Cane defensive training has become popular with a wide segment of the population in the States and Abroad. It isn’t a new concept. Cane and stick fighting has been going on for thousands of years.

Anti-gun and knife laws are prohibiting carrying many defensive weapons. Many of these prohibited locations are also high-crime areas. Can’t carry pistols or edged weapons on a plane, at a sporting event, in a school or courthouse. The list is growing longer thanks to liberal politicians who only side with criminals.
The one thing you CAN carry is a medical device called a cane. Let’s say you were planning to go to a political rally, knowing that violent Antifa thugs would be present. Laws preclude you from packing heat—but not a cane. The disabilities act prevents anyone from taking your cane away from you, and if they do and you fall down, it’s lawsuit city!
