We might need to add a new saying: "Don't bring a toy gun to a gun fight."

For those who think that it's just as effective to pull a toy gun against home invaders, burglars, robbers, or rapists because many of the people we write about run without any shots being fired, this is exactly why you're rolling the dice by doing that.
