I have always been amazed by the ease with which liberals believe absolute fantasies. Here we see liberals trying to give "real" advice about defending yourself when your home is invaded by criminals. First, they get their expert adviser from the rabidly anti-Second Amendment, anti-self defense NYPD. The adviser is a hostage negotiator who is trained to try to talk his way out of crisis situations. His "expert" advice: keep a can of wasp spray handy. After all, it works against wasps, right? You could also spray yourself with a can of criminal-repellant spray too. And be sure to leave your bedroom doors wide open. It makes it easier for other people to hear. Of course, it also makes it easier for home invaders to get into your bedroom in the middle of the night even though you sleep with a your trusty can of wasp spray. And the ultimate piece of liberal advice when worse comes to worse confronting criminals - just be polite and submit! Criminals are really nice people who just need to be treated with respect; then, the criminal will treat you with respect in return.

Right! How many women and children have to be kidnapped, raped, and murdered by thugs & sex offenders before the libs figure out that submission empowers criminals? How many decent people have to be beaten & murdered in their own homes before these liberals wake up?

It comes down to some simple questions: do you want to be at the mercy of criminals in your own home or would you rather that the home invaders were at your mercy? If you are going to defend yourself and your loved ones against a violent criminal, do you want a can of bug spray or a gun? Do you think the NYPD reaches for bug spray or for their guns when they have to defend their lives?

Welcome to reality!

Ping. Liberal’s elf-defense advise in a home invasion! You cannot make this stuff up!

A good dog is one of the best things, especially an intelligent one.

Next have a gun which is easy to use handy by your bed. Be darn certain of your target before you shoot tho. Also keep a powerful light handy. I particularly like one I have which with the first click shines a bright clear light. Second click and it pulses another very bright beam. I think this might very well make an invader lose their train of thought.

I think the best defense is an IR laser. They will fry the eyeballs of an intruder and they won’t even know what’s happening except for the pain and their lights going out.

You have to make sure you have IR lenses though or you will be blind too...

Please check your state and local laws on the legality of using these sprays for self-defense.”

…if it’s against state laws, then what? Spray cologne? PAM? Silly String?

An intruder in your home will likely not leave witnesses regardless how well of a liberal sheep you act.
This article is chalk full bad advice.
If you have kids, you train them early about firearms and respect for said firearms. You get them to the range early. You (very carfeully) supervise them with a shotgun shooting double odd buck that knocks them on their asses and scares the crap into them about respect for firearms. There is a gun/rifle in every bedroom of this house. I have a dog that swears a mouse is out to kill us and makes the WHOLE house know about it (no one, NO ONE has managed to sneak up on this house yet). You manage caches in and out of your home. You practice escape routes and rallying points. You know your property/neighborhood/surroundings better than anyone else. You keep a top notch med kit at home in case things don’t go your way and you have to deal with wounds after the perps are dead.
I taught my kids to get skinny and low (I’m talking leaving indentations in the carpet low) if we ever experience a “home invasion” because drywall wont be stopping shit and my street sweeper would be leveling thugs thigh high and above (side note, I don’t live in suburbia, you can however purchase rounds designed NOT to exit your home to protect your neighbor if you do have homes close by).
These people and their passive aggressive “wasp spray” crap are not committed to surviving. They only prolong the experience until they “believe” law enforcement show up.

Bottom line, instead of wasp spray, prepare yourself to go off like a hornets nest and the word will get out VERY quickly that your property is not to be trifled with; especially if the bad guys are laying dead inside (all the bad guys must be dead btw, leave nothing left to come back and sue you).

I’ll take my trained Malinois, backed up by a Glock .45, and an AKM with a light, Aimpoint, and 30 rounds over the liberal’s advice, and no, I won’t tell them where my valuables are, either.

I read a report that said wasp spray was no more effective than spraying any canned chemical (except mace or pepper spray) and was completely ineffective in repelling an attacker. It’s an urban myth.

If you spray an invader with poison (bug spray), is that an illegal assault?

Sorry, Ziens, but your strategy won’t work, can’t work and should not be expected to work. Layered security is the only realistic solution to home invasion. Passive deterrents, supported by active barriers and finally, personal defensive tactics create a strategy that first discourages such crime (in order from out to inside-cameras, lights, landscaping, windows & doors and proper hinges/locks and alarms followed by active and lethal self defense tools/tactics and most importantly, mindset ( or a really comfy and expensive safe room) and training make up the compliment of necessary layers that do work, even in the worst areas.

As a security professional, I am amazed at how naïve many folks are-when it comes down to it, if a bad guy(s) make it inside, you better bet on the fact that they really don’t care about letting you or your family live- they already know they are on tape, the civil response clock is running and they have little time to deal with niceties or chivalry.... If you let them get inside, you’d better be able, willing and capable of dealing with them lethally. Most folks are not, especially those who think it won’t happen to them, or that they will be able to play along and live....
