Pepper spray can be very effective. It is a good tool to have available.

Outstanding!

Where was this bouncer when the jerk was making a menace to others in the bar?

The SOB should have been tossed out on his ear long before this episode occurred.

Probably should have re-worded that!

Great story and good judgement by all. I hope the Police explained to the jerk just how lucky he was to still be alive. Had this young lady had her CW on her when he charged she would have been right to defend herself. But good for her to have a backup in hand!

I’ve been looking into adding several cans of pepper spray along wsith some other less than lethal ammo to my emergency stores, but there are so many products out there it’s almost impossible to make a reasoned decision based on nothing more than the advertising alone.

If you were looking to buy multiple cans of the most effective and legal self-defense spray made, what would you buy?

Has anyone else stocked 12 Gage beanbag rounds and any of the other like less than lethal shotgun products??

How about pepper balls for a paintball gun?? If you’re just trying to repel a group of people you could put a lot of encouragement on them quickly that way.

Every bit of prior preparation you make is worthwhile. You never know what might come in handy some day and save you from using your last resort.

Who is this guy Buckley that chicks call him in the middle of the night for advice and his wife doesn’t object? I don’t like his tone—its smarmy and boorish and condescending all at once. What is he, a “self defense” instructor for women? So a guy without all of the socially acceptable equipment tried to hit on a woman, she didn’t like him and sprayed him with pepper and got him arrested. And she was thrilled the cops told her to “continue with her evening fun”. So now some sectors of society have implied rights to assault others without legal consequences. That’s what it has come down to. Some people have a lot more rights than others. And the “others” increasingly seem to be straight white males. What a society we now have. And this guy Buckley is joining the pile-on. Has he never had his advances rejected by a woman? Absolutely no empathy whatsoever with this guy? What is he, a closet queer?

Whenever someone mentions "bear spray", I can't help thinking and laughing at that South Park epi.

All my kids carry it. Thankfully in five years they have never had to use it.

"Less than Lethal"

Do you understand that when a LEO uses/deploys less that lethal force, that he has other officers beside and behind him with firearms drawn?

You might want to read the story again.

Slowly.

Just pay attention to the wind direction...
