Lighting the stream of spray with a lighter might not make the can explode but leaving it in the sun in a closed car might.
Affective = Effective (oops).
It would be “affective” too, wouldn’t it?
Heh—remedy from gossip. They should find other self-defense weapons.
Some bug sprays are similar to nerve gas. First symptoms are muscle twitches, difficulty breathing, etc. One antidote is common but also dangerous without another chemical to keep the heart from stopping. I would expect a court to come down rather hard after someone—even a criminal—received much of a dose. The effect would be delayed anyway, so it might not stop an attacker.
Why??
I’ve had it sprayed in my face as part of basic training. Nothing makes sense anymore
I think it boils down to many not wanting others to be able to protect themselves...
I looked it up after I posted and I guess pepper spray is technically legal in all states, though regulations on sales, what kind, etc. are so numerous in some areas/states that it is very hard to find to buy and if you buy it online it can’t be shipped everywhere. So it is legal but you can’t buy it everywhere...
It's a plastic see-through face shield. Similar to what someone would wear while using tools that might shoot out liquids, pieces of wood, metal, etc. Medical people also wear them when there is danger of blood or bodily fluid spray. Here's a better pic.
No. Having used that stuff on wasps, there isn't much blow back unless the wind is blowing. But the crazy looking thing might make the perp keep away!
I was actually suggesting the PERP who messes with women in areas where there is a lot of "bug spray" would get smart and wear the thing to protect HIS eyes.
When she fires and nothing happens, it's all over. She will freeze and the guy will be on her in a flash.
Thanks - the white background killed the scale and perspective. And yes, wasp spray is not a substitute for precision-delivered lead.
To women who are INvoluntarily having to do this due to libtard cowards making the laws, my deepest sympathy and may God protect you.
