I bought one of those 6 months after I started. Wasn't for any other means, but in the event if someone tried to carjack me or rob me.

I just thought it would be funny, if he had one, at the time the contractor pulled the utility knife on him. He could have pulled the baton and been like "If you think it will beat this baton" lets go for it.

However, I would have taken it out, and at the same time, dialed 911 and tell the operator that I am being threatened, and that I have the bottom for safety, so if I hit the guy, it is self defense.

Why pull a baton when you can pull a 45?
