Is it something to do with defence?

Crabs run or move sideways because that is the way their legs bend. Crabs do not have ball-and-socket joints; many crabs have joints in their legs moving in a restricted number of planes so that they can only move sideways. Many crabs like the "Shore Crab" need to scamper sideways to avoid the legs getting tangled up with each other. \n\nMuscles work in pairs. A muscle can only retract, or pull; to lengthen again it must relax and be pulled back by another 'antagonistic' muscle. The muscle blocks in crabs are attached to the inner surface of the exoskeleton, including the ten tubular legs, including the legs with claws, or chelae, as well as other appendages.\nAslo,For animals, their body lengths are normally larger than the widths. For locomotion, animals usually move along the long axis of their bodies. As crabs run sideways, they are moving along the long axis of their bodies.

Fine. Don't defend yourself, it's not necessary. People are always going to slam you because that's the way it is. Don't let it get to you.

Too busy bickering over which huts to bomb in Iraq already rather than defending the country.\n\nMost enlightening hockey question since... well... ever...

Must of us know that. It is a defense that some used. Some feel it is against the people or you would ignore the law. Ever see those questions where it said-we all break them? What kind of morals to they have? Do they truly believe that? \n You are right for many it is about country.

What purpose would it serve good or bad to do so???

It's a defense mechanism that is secreted from their joints to ward of potential enemies.

It isn't that democrats are weak on defense but they aren't willing to spend $$$ that republicans demand we put into defense but all of this over-spending hasn't made us any safer. More money does not equal a stronger defense considering republicans throw the money into totally useless and irrelevant military projects that do not counter today's threats. \nThe fact of the matter is that 3,000 Americans died on Bush's watch and hundreds of marines were slaughtered in Lebanon during Reagan and these administrations were supposedly "tough" on defense just because they spent more. However history said otherwise.

No, i think it also has something to do with strenght. Also it has something to do with the suroundings, if you have time to buy poison why not?

Yeah they're defense is not that good and they do need to do something to change that. I hope they do get a new defensive coordinator and a good one at that. If they had a good defense they would be really hard to beat.

I think it is a wise decision to go back to the self defense doctrines of the past. Civil liability suits were the driving force behind legislatures bending self defense statues backward or eliminating them altogether, along wish some absolutely insane jury verdicts in favor of violent offenders injured or killed by their victims.\n\nI think it is common sense.

The United States Military is not a defense service.  Nor is the Indian Military.  The only true Self Defense Force is the Japanese military.  They are prohibited by law to engage in any combat action other than self defense of their country.  And that may change in the next 50 years...

Defense, being a superpower has the major economical factors of meaning large army.\n\nNow for this, other thigns suffer, such as Health and Education, meaning that as a whole the society will stagnate as new ideas can't spread through education and Health is the way you keep people around to remember the old.
