Doctors and law enforcement input especially appreciated here: What is the best kind of self defense spray?

We're talking citizen self-defense here. Not detaining a suspect.



I realize that, that's why my post was directed towards Brent in reply to Brent and his post.

Since he was using law enforcement data in choosing his spray, Fox (which is popular with many LEOs), I was also.


As a side note, something that I'm sure you know, OC doesn't always stop someone. Just because someone isn't a LEO doesn't mean that if they're in a situation where they spray someone with OC that the suspect will stop and they'll be able to run away safely. The victim may have to still go hands on to get away. Which could very easily give them exposure.

Just get out of there uninjured and call the cops.



Exactly!

Oh, dude. I emptied a half a big cannister of OC on a 60 year old guy who HAD JUST HAD A LASER FACE PEEL and he looked at me and said "I own you now" and the fight was on.

Epic.

Once the stuff got to him the snot locker was open big-time, but it had no immediate affect upon initial application. I remember thinking "Crap, this trendy pepper crap has nothing on mace". It was great, the guy kept fighting (drunk driver) and I really put a whooping on him. As always I kept repeating "Sir, please submit!" but he was obtuse. Got a citizen's commendation for that one. "Officer Kelly was so polite even though the man kept calling him a motherfucker and kept trying to hit him"

Ah, I miss it.

zero tolerance policies for weapons...



University student. It should be attached to her keys, actually. If it's not accessible, it's not useful.



Check the school policy on such things.

If pepper spray is forbidden, have her carry it anyway. It's better to risk a small punishment for having it, then to be raped for not.

AK-47 should get the job done. How many people do you know that would try fucking with someone with an AK? Besides our kick ass troops in Iraq of course.

Seriously, pepper spray won't do shit if you don't know how to use it. Self Defense training would be best in her case.;)
Some day I will have the best staff in the world!!!

You make me laugh J.P. Not that its truely funny, but it goes back to the conversation we had in Eloy about the train and the face. I've learned now why people in your background in my state have said 10yrs worth of experience in 2yrs about where I am.
