Is a gun the only way to protect oneself?

Not really.

The best ways of protecting yourself are passive. Stay away from high crime neighborhoods or situations. Make yourself and your home a less attractive target for crime.

To misuse sun tzu, to fight and win a thousand battles is not the acme of skill. The acme of skill is to win without fighting, to fight an enemy who is already defeated.

But protecting your family most effectively isn't as sexy as swinging around a gun.
