Is getting a gun the only solution?

No. The media will destroy you.

Remember the gun-waving couple during the George Floyd protests?

Or even Ahmaud Arbery which got upgraded to a "hate crime" charge.

All of these guys got fucked because they talked to the cops. If you end up having to shoot a nigger, have a game plan. I keep a card in my wallet with the phone numbers of some local self defense attorneys and this checklist:

Secure the weapon the assailant used. If possible, avoid touching the weapon with your bare hands. If you have sustained any injuries, seek medical attention right away. If possible, thoroughly check the scene without tampering with evidence. Help the victim as long as they are no longer a threat to your safety – but do not touch the victim if they appear to be dead. Call the police. Explain that there has been a self-defense shooting and provide your location without giving any other details about the incident. Request emergency medical assistance. Be sure to put your firearm away, concealed from view. Comply with police, even if they treat you like a suspect. Refrain from questioning law enforcement officials or arguing with them, but be firm about not providing any statements.
Contact an attorney. As soon as possible. Be sure to let the attorney do the talking for you, as anything you say can and will be used against you. You could say:
I assert my right to counsel.
I do not consent to any searches or seizures.
I would like to be treated for shock.
I assert my right to silence.
Get medical treatment. As soon as paramedics arrive, you should be treated for shock. Any other people involved should also receive treatment whether they were injured or not.
Refrain from speaking to news media. Instead of recounting the incident to friends, family, neighbors, or media representatives, let your attorney do the talking.
Take legal action. You have the right to use lethal force if you genuinely feared for your life or someone else’s life. Do not apologize for defending yourself – statements of regret or apology can be misconstrued as guilt. You should also avoid statements like “they had it coming,” which can imply wrongdoing.
