Bathroom defense

There's always the toilet tank lid for a quick, blunt object. If it breaks, all the better. You now have point and edge weapons.

That's exactly what I was getting at, and I think FQ was as well .
It alo applies to "gun control"
If you are determined to inflict violence any movable object can become a viable tool to do so.
In the Bath room ?
soap in a wash cloth as a quickie black jack,or strangle them with a towel.

If you have time to retrieve the lid, you have time to grab the Glock ( ) you set on top of it.

Especially if you are soapy, wet, and close.
The prime requirements are fight as dirty as possibly and be fast, no hesitation.

Aren't these contradictary statements?

You can be physically clean while achieving extreme levels of moral filth

So now that I'm done with school, for a while, and I'm back in the gym on a regular basis I have found that going an hour to an hour and a half with out access to a firearm is uncomfortable.  So I picked up something from the IDPA indoor nationals that was covered on some other Outdoor Channel show and began off body carry in my gym bag (the bag with the heavy bag gloves, chalk, lifting belt, straps and wraps) which has accompanied me for years to a number of gyms.  The only issue I have found is just making sure I have it close at hand, which really isn't as big an issue as not having a gun close at hand.  As a benefit my situational awareness is much higher as I know who is where and who doesn't belong.

As for the gym, when I left Chrysler I decided to quit the gym also to save on expenses. I have enough equipment at home and a park nearby so I am able to carry or have one nearby during the workout. Not as much fun but that is where self discipline kicks in. Great call out and something to consider.

I think thewholepoint is to stop them BEFORE you are nekkid in the shower. My allarm is always on even when I am home. I have a gun within 5 steps of the shower. Thanks for the image of our beloved MB in the shower with the 1911. That is never gonna go away!!

Sometimes you have to carry off body or not carry at all.  When I'm at the gym (I have a garage gym so I don't usually have to worry about it, but I still do make 'guest appearances' at public gyms from time to time) or competing in a strongman contest, I usually keep it in a holster in my gym bag.  It's not always "right there" but it's a hell of a lot closer than being in your car or at home.

When I play rugby, I usually leave my firearm at home.  I obviously can't play a full contact sport with a pistol tucked in the waistband of my shorts and it's not safe to leave it in my kit bag on the sidelines.  There are too many kids running around on the sidelines and I'm not going to endanger them by leaving a gun where it's accessible and unattended.  I also like to have a few beers after the match (nature's pain reliever), so it's best to leave the firearm at home.
