**Shines flashlight*
*Bad guy: **_dies_*
dies of laughter probably.
I am going to invent a kubaton, flashlight, pepper sprayer launcher, and siren all in one device!!!
xD
This comment made me laugh harder than it should of.
You must be a dead by daylight player...
Most people (men and women) panic in these types of situations and would fail to employ any of these devices in an immediate instance.
Constant practice is necessary for any of these methods to become an immediate reaction with muscle memory.
The best defense is situational awareness, and just plain simple prevention.
Most attacks/muggings happen to unaware victims, and possessing all of these tools only will work if you're aware of your surroundings and have a clue on what is happening before the perpetrator gains control over you.
Anyway, practice makes perfect for whatever defensive weapon you use.
it's mostly natural instinct, trust me, I never lost to a close range combat in my life.
PS: I don't even workout, so I have no strength, in case you are wondering.
Asterio So is that why you don’t fw guns eh?
But....you can't respawn in real life..
Rubik Talking to me?
Original no
A flamethrower works every time. As the bad guy is screaming and trying to beat out the flames you can point the flashlight at them as well. Belt and braces.
Also utilize a camera phone to capture the moment and post it on CZcams.

All of my friends carry little knives. They named them- Betty, Slashley, Stabbatha, Stabrina, and Cutrina.
I'm guessing Betty is the goody two shoes of the bunch. 😂😂😂
Is that the gun names or your friends?
@@sophiatera i think thats the knives
@Michael Cheritto Betty , machete idk lol😂
Emilie : knives are not wise they’re legal for starters pepper spray Much better idea a whistle and some Brazilian jiu jitdu lessons Without a gi for the street
I have 25 year training in the martial arts and 50 years' experience with handguns. This video is dangerous to women because carrying these five things would give them a false sense of security and nothing more. To paraphrase Col. Jeff Cooper, "Carrying a weapon does not make you armed anymore than owning a guitar makes you a musician." To start off, the whistle and the alarm are useless. In the time it takes to use them, you could access a real weapon. By the time police could react to the noise, the bad guy could have done whatever he wanted to do. I carry pepper spray, but I know it's only good for aggressive dogs and drunks, where you have at least a little time to deploy it and you don't really want hurt your target. I carry it in the hopes it will keep me from having to kill someone. Also, it takes more training and practice to use well than you would think. Kubotans also take a lot of training to use well. I carry a high-intensity flashlight that can also be used as a kubotan. It's useful, but it's only an aid to self defense, not something to depend on. I am 65 years old, but if I wanted to attack Gabrielle Rubin armed with her martial arts and five pseudo-weapons, I would knock her out before she could use any of that. Guns are the great equalizer, but they take training to use also and are not legal in some places. Better non-lethal weapons are: Canes, "hardened" umbrellas, collapsible batons, Tasers, knives, sap gloves. Whatever you carry, train with it. Don't just watch videos about it.
Tasers are proven to be bullshit, only cops stun guns are "effective" and yet sometimes it needs up to 4-5 shots to get a dude down, especially if he is heavy or on roids.
That*
What if you can combine all that and get a tasered umbrella to use as a cane with a detachable knife/barbed tip? 😄 You can use that as a shield while prepping your spray with the high intensity flashlight.
The alarm could be upgraded to call the police and send out the location at the press of a button in really dire scenarios at home.
@@weneedmoreconsideratepeopl4006 it’s fine I will just use my rock in a sock.
She didn't say she's safe with any of those tools, she just provided some options, some of which are great.
GPS is great, pepper spray is great.
The noise is not the best, but better than nothing.
Many self-defense instructors agree that loud noise attracts attention that attackers don't want and CAN dissuade some.
Only thing that would work is the pepper spray.
+Alexandria School of Science Demand that your country legalizes it. If not carry a knife for self defense or a small razor.
They just need to add... PEPSI spray! ahh it hurts to exist.
Get one of those small car touch up paint cans. They don't have the reach that pepper spray has, but spraying paint in their eyes will incapacitate them. Bonus is that some tosser with hot pink car paint in their eyes will be noticed at a hospital.
Only thing that will work is a pistol.
Are you saying that shineing a flashlight on the person will not subdue him?
If my neighbours heard the safety alarm they would just think oh it’s another car or house alarm 😂

1. flash light - just illuminate them to death
This is the best ad for carry conceal of firearms I've ever seen.
We got a self-defence program in high school PE, but the one thing I always remember learning is the majority of times women who carry these types of weapons actually get attacked, the items are used against them. The takeaway was that it was best to use your techniques with your own body parts.
Saw lots of ideas there that will give people a false sense of security. The pepper spray is a great idea but SITUATIONAL AWARENESS was not even discussed.
She forgot to mention compliance. Putting your hands up immediately and saying something like please don't hurt me.
@@bowtieguy85 Compliance is stupid, and it highly depends on individuals involved and situation. A robber robbing a store wants compliance but if he's robbing after the store is closed and if he is robbing is a woman then he might get tempted to rape her as well.
Fake compliance is a better strategy, act afraid, drop your bag on the ground at his feet, while the robber go down to take your bag and is distracted empty your .45 into his body, control his gun and call the police.
If like me you live in a shithole country where you can't defend yourself from robbers then just don't get robbed.

My first instinct is if someone is try to take me or harass me I just start barking and running very quickly. It makes a scene 🤷♀️
Did you just say barking
*Real advice*: just always carry a European longsword (with a pommel (to end them rightly)) and nobody will come near you!
PEPETHEPOPE well, the police will come to you 😂
the "I only use a gun" people are kidding yourselves. Its not a cure all weapon. Do your research
Yeah, and not everybody lives in the US, in some countries carrying a gun will get you in jail for 3+ years
N WaterLily I agree. Makes sense
Lmao, in my country, if you want a gun, it will take you a longg time to get a licensed one, if you own one that isn't, expect going to jail for 20+ years lmao, also, if your gun was used as a weapon at a crime scene, like if your gun was stolen and was used to hurtother people, you'll also be in trouble.
@@TheLochs elaborate? how is a whistle or a metal keychain better than a handgun?
@Mr Zida I'm not a liberal. I understand self defense at a high level. Owning a gun doesn't make you invincible. There are many other things one can do to protect oneself. Look up the Tueller principal.
Dude I live in Australia, Pepper Spray is illegal, even if I get away from an attack, I'm the one going to jail.
That's horrible. Pepper spray is considered a non-lethal defense item to.
Annika Hollister how about bring a stun gun, pointed tip scissors or razor?

@@bashbashbashu Ot said on the news rhe British Queen was firing him
It never happened??
Piggy-backing on what @global Adventurer is saying: For everyone saying "oh, just carry a gun." Or "I'll just shoot the person." Understand, if you're not a qualified professional that works with that firearm on the daily, it may just place more technical issues in the mix. As someone who does carry everyday in the federal sector, the liability involved is unimaginable. Even if you manage to utilize the firearm safely and neutralize the threat by discharging a round, you now, must articulate to law enforcement your reason for doing so, and that's if he doesn't die. If he does, you're on whole new level of shit. Using non lethal measures (ie: OC, Baton, High Powered light, alarm) has it's place, I'm not looking to take a life, I'm sure most gun owners aren't either. If the threat has a firearm and engaged in using deadly force, then have at it and empty the mag. However, if the subject doesn't, less lethals can be utilized.
And not every country has a "you can get a gun, you can get a gun, everybody can get a gun" law
This is why i carry a huge feather everywere i go......way more effective.
I really wanna go backpacking alone, but I’m to scared. Like it’s crazy that people would actually harm others people for whatever reason.
@Michael Cheritto Some people love solo traveling
Regarding 0:11 when using pepper spray, be mindful that there is not a strong wind that could deflect the spray or blow it back onto your face. Also if it is raining, then this could dilute the potency of pepper spray. Regarding 0:40, if you do not carry a Kutoban, then a pen can be improvised as a pocket size thrusting weapon although not as mightily as a sword. Regarding 1:19, that key chain fob alarm sounds like a tweeting bird. Regarding 1:31, that little whistle looks like a hotel doorman's whistle used for hailing a taxi cab. Instead get a Fox 40 Sonik Blast Whistle which has a loudness rating of 120 decibels.
Her methods of self defense are countered easily.
What if the attacker wears an ordinary attire (for lawbreakers) such as hoodie and sunglasses?What if he wears heavy winter clothing?What if he brandishes a range weapon such as a baseball bat or a hammer or a machete or simply a 2 x 4?
Guess I die
Eventually the screeching device will alert someone to the false confident victims body.. unless the attacker takes the time to crush the cheap plastic trinket, or the batteries expire.. like the over confident victim.
What if the bad guy ALSO has self-defense on them and they get you first?
Yaa thats actually a thing and i have seen it as a medic, where Rapists are licensed to carry and use a 38 or a glock to pin you in a corner and do their business
She keeps saying bad guy TRIGGERED
Haram Sheikh do you ever see woman robbing? even if the do they don't kill you. I'm no a girl but just admit it , don't use gender quality to get trigger for nothing. quick point I'm not going to reply
Well I think of the word guy as a gender neutral term, like addressing a room full of men and women as "guys."
Did she just assume his gender!!!!!!! 😤
Queen.357 you did too when you said "his gender"
%73.8 are males
Here's my proof: ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2012/crime-in-the-u.s.-2012/tables/42tabledatadecoverviewpdf/table_42_arrests_by_sex_2012.xls
If someone grab your hand, just TWIST your hand and they'll accidentally let your hand go
I can't believe she's getting paid for this crap. Please tell me that this is a joke.
Ikr? She didn't even bring up immediately surrendering and doing as your told. 😒
There sure are a lot of people saying you should just have a gun. Here are some facts:
1) If everyone has a gun, nobody is safer.
2) If we're assuming that the woman can have a gun, then the man attacking her would also have a gun and would start the whole thing by holding her at gunpoint.
3) Even if the woman had a gun and the attacker didn't, she should still probably have pepper spray or an alarm. There's no reason not to carry those just in case.
4) The average person will have zero chances to use a gun in self defense, but hundreds of chances to get angry or scared and ruin their life in a split second. A gun is far more likely to land you in prison than it is to save you.
good tools but it's always good to be street smart and aware of ur surroundings and how to read people.
Yeah it will be a big help but it needs a previous exeperience
For me i was a naive and stupid girl that dont care about anything in the streets until someone followed me to an isolated place and sexually harrased me ...it was a horrible experience but i gained a lot of self development because of it and i became more aware of the people around me also i trained so hard to gain physical strenght now i can fight back and run
Well I for one can't wait for her to try this in a real life situation :)
Pepper spray is only good when the wind is not blowing and even then you can still get blowback. And it sucks when you get blowback or which can be worse is when the pepper spray disengages in your purse or pocket and is sprayed accidentally that burns like hell.
Me: whistles
Random guy with a freaking loaded gun holding me at gun point: *ah shit i cant believe you done this* (dies)
1) Why on earth are you spraying thin air and NOT the assailant? You should be spraying his forehead, eyes, nose, mouth.
2) What about countries like the UK where pepper sprays or stun guns even possessed at home will get you 3+ years jail? And any item in public, even if legal, but intended for self-defence is illegal e.g. that kubotan, keys where you intend them to be used to defend yourself, etc
Same in NYC. We have to be creative and take the chance of arrest vs being assaulted. Even a 1 cm knife blade is illegal if it locks into place! Slingshots can carry a sentence of up to 7 years in prison. When biking, each of us carries a large spanner. Perfectly acceptable tool for cyclists, Officer.
When they study late, our oldest son and daughter carry 51 cm baseball bats in their book bags. And they have a rubber ball tossed in there in case they are questioned. Perfectly acceptable sporting equipment, Officer.
My wife keeps a “tire thumper” (it even has that printed on it) in the front of the car. Perfectly acceptable tool to test tire pressure, Officer.
If we go out running or for a walk, we do so with a half a brick in our hand or pocket. I broke some up with a hammer. If we are questioned after an incident, we’d say we picked it up by the curb to protect ourselves during the attack, Officer.
Would these stop a bullet or knife? No. All we hope for is the opportunity to stun or hurt an attacker long enough to run. Our children all study Brazilian Jujitsu and MMA, and my wife and I have kickboxed for close to 20 years. We are strong and make sure to be alert of our surroundings. We’ve taught our kids to not use headphones in public, keep their phones in their pockets, look around as they walk, notice people, look at parked cars, is anyone sitting in them, turn their heads left and right, look behind if they feel uncomfortable, be prepared to strike, defend, run, and show potential attackers that they will not be caught unawares. It’s all we can do 😔
@@DepDawg I feel sad to hear both of your stories 😥
gotta love how almost everyone is saying "gun" completely ignoring civillians cant own guns in like 100+ countries
Imma be honest since when I get in a situation where I need to escape, I usually have pepper spray, keys, and a small knife. Whichever I’m able to grab first is gonna be the one I use. With the keys you wanna put them between your fingers so wolverine style so you can jab at them. It’s not that slow to do so if you practice grabbing them quickly
I assume you're a woman, my advice as a male, don't get in a fight with a male if you can avoid it because real life ain't movies. Brandishing a knife will get you stabbed because it is almost sure you will have to guts to actually use it and you will lose it, keys are useless. Just stick to the pepper spray, spray him and run fast and try to yell or reach a crowded place.
Le Cobra I’m actually a male myself haha but thanks for the advice though I already know this! I was told this already by a friend
NO! Do not put your keys between your fingers like the wolverine style. The keys would bend back and potentially tear your skin. When using keys for self-defense, just pinch it like a little sword.
i carry my stinky underwear LMFAO... it helps alot.XD
You cool
This is good.. but it is also good to know that kubatons are considered prohibited weapons in certain states. For example, a kubaton is considered an impact weapon in Oklahoma, which is prohibited under state law - meaning you can be arrested for possession of a kubaton in Oklahoma.
A firearm.
A pocketknife.
You're good to go!
(Recommended firearm is Glock 19, they're pretty popular. If you want a small one a Glock 24 Gen 4 will do.)
For pocketknife you should get one that's spring assisted, has a seatbelt cutter if you're car goes into the water or your seatbelt is comprised. And also a glass breaker if you are again in the water. Trust me, you ain't opening that door for awhile.
My recommended knife is a Bōker knife they come out of the case really sharp
God Emperor Trump Is that what you told your ex wife as you drove each other into the Atlantic Ocean? Yea I saw what you did fam. 😂
Science Vids
Wut?
flipper > assis
Glock 24 is not a small gun lol
You could use those stuff, or you could, hear me out, exercise your second amendment right to carry a firearm
If only you could in California
and where do we put these items so when we were in attack we could get it effectively? (and fast)
In your hand, you carry them defensively otherwise they're useless
The only self defense item I carry is my two hands in the surrender position, accompanied by the phrase don't hurt me I'll do whatever you say.
Best 5 self defence tools
.38
.45
9mm
.50
Howitzer
Agreed
In america we all carry around mini guns just incase we see any trouble and as a side arm we carry around 12 gauge shotguns for weak oppressors but these weapons are just light to our military who all carry around giant omega laser guns from the year 2976.
The only guns I carry around her my two biceps that I use to hold my hands in the surrender position.
The kubaton is the stupidest, right behind the alarm. In the city there's constantly car alarms going off, noise everywhere. Ain't nobody looking out the window for that, all I'm saying.
Bare minimum would be pepper spray, if not a concealed .380, those can actually stop someone.
Shines flashlight
Badguy: my time has come
My Time Has Come (im dead off that one) haahhaahahaha
For day situation the best self-defense it atleast you need to know the basic fighting skill, human weak spots, how to punch, how to dodge, how to kick, and if you need self defense tool that not look very obvious carry a small sharp knife
For night time defense: if you face only one guy a hi intensity flashlight( at least 1000 lumens (this is my standard)) will do (make sure your flashlight got strobe mode) just shines at them (hi intensity flashlight will blind human and ruin their sight for several seconds, depending on the situation) and if you don't know how to defend yourself just run with your flashlight at strobe mode to attract nearby people
Ways to piss of the predator✌🏿
Pepper spray is incredibly effective watch active self protection. All the rest are feel good items
If i carry all five at the time it would be confusing. Which one should I use? 😀
I'll properly get bored and use the pepper spray on myself
i did that with my pepper spray no regrets i loved it actually
Everyone is saying use a gun but what if that person disarms you and uses your own weapon against you?!
You can say none of these would work, but every time she states, ‘then run’ and that’s all you need, 5seconds to get your run on, or then attack. Good advice to a point, but you need to think wider,.. avoid getting into tricky situations, if you do thinking,.. where are my exits, active communication ‘back off!’ (Might be enough) call for help/ scream, use every and anything as a weapon, set of keys, lighter, hairbrush, compact (in hammerfist) all could give you an edge. Good vid but only scratches the surface
EDC: FOURSEVENS QUARK QPA PRO WITH ENELOOPS, SAWFLY GEN 2 BALLISTIC SUNGLASSES, GANZO AXIS LOCK KNIFE, OLIGHT I3S, MOTO G GEN 1, CASIO GW 6900 G-SHOCK WATCH. This is Canadian EDC so I can't have the gun.
I carried tactical pen and flashlight 1000 LM or more. I hope it help me when I am in the situation.

PARANOID K A R E N!!
it's shame that we have to learn such things and woman can't go out for long
time without being conscious about something can go wrong
Tips use a higher lumen flashlight
such as those cheap ones reccomended by budget friendly preppers the ultra fire cree q5 led bursts 200 lumens with strobe which is abundant enough to impare someone's sight for a certain time as for the kubotan if its illegal in your country use a parker ALL METAL Jotter or what i use a retractable ALL METAL vector also from parker another tip for kubotans are select the right type such Is the flat one (looks like a key fob to the untrained eye)(used in the video) or blunt ones(pointed but blunt) which looks like a pen from like a few feet away the the pointed one (will attract people into thinking its a weapon but very effective)
The guard at our bank uses a retractable vector, didn't do us much good when we were robbed a couple years ago. The robber just laughed at him, said nice flashlight Gramps and continued to Rob us.
Pepper spray? There are reasons cops choose not to use it outdoors often: no matter what they always get themselves too, and it doesn't always work. Kubotan? Unless you're putting in thousands of hours of practice and mixing it with a form of martial arts it's not gonna do jack fucking shit for you. Just because you watch some actor do some cool shit on screen doesn't mean you can do that cool shit in real life. I'm not even going to touch upon the flashlight and what's essentially a failure prone rape whistle. The only viable forms of self-defense for people who don't stress test themselves to see if they operate under extreme pressure involves gross-motor skills. These include use of a firearm, fixed-blade knives, and martial arts. Videos like these shouldn't be allowed on the internet because they're more likely to give a person a false sense of security and get them hurt in a combative situation. If you're serious about not being helpless buy a gun, train with the gun, and learn proper weapon retention.
Stefan Yi this is so true
I mostly agree with you, although i have some differences. I think pepper spray is useful. The reason is, cops have to go after the perp (and the spray they throw), while we move away from the perp (and the spray). The kubotan is useful, but yeah, you HAVE TO train with it. And btw do NOT USE it that way she showed pls XD ofc. The flash light is useful, but not the way she uses it. The alarm is a joke. Can work, but not to cause them "pain in their ear so ghey move their hands there"XD but so that it attracts attention while you do something else (like fighting your way away). Forget the whistle, scream. And please any gadget is USELESS withouth training, when will someone understand that, 100% agreement there.
I'm sorry someone attacked you; you have every right to use self defense.

The alarm...you have to pull, how can u do that if ur arms are locked?
Personal alarm and pepper spray i think its the better once if some one slap the personal alarm out of ur hand it will still continue making sound and u dont need to put it at ur mouth and whistle u just pull it and it starts making loud siren but there are some cheap one that will break if some one slap it out of ur hands or step on it but the best is pepper spray take it out and spray the attacker he will be in pain and blind for few hours and can run
She forgot about an AGM 114 hellfire missle and 30mm cannons
Need to bring this on United
Might as well duct tape a zippo to a can of hairspray for an improv flamethrower. That’s how ridiculous these “weapons” are.
Pepper spray is the only useful one, and she’d have to be walking with it in her hand, pointed in the right direction, safety off, hopefully the wind will be blowing away from her so she doesn’t get any blowback and blind herself, and the attacker has to be slower than she is or he’ll punch her in the face first, or grip her hand and bend her wrist back and break it in 1 second flat - SNAP!
Yes, course when they come from behind and restrain both your arms, you can still get them out of your pocket. Or maybe you always have them in your hands?
She said not trying to beat the person up. What about kubotan
If you’re not trying to carry a gun, the only ones that will help are the pepper spray to attack and the alarm to bring attention
Best self defense weapon: a marriage proposal.
most women carry all their stuff in bags. they do not have the time to get them out and use them. this woman lives in a dreamworld where men are much slower than herself
I feel like the way she's describing this stuff is as if a bad guy is gonna care about a loud noise or a flashlight and if a bad guy is figuring u a plastic stick will not do shit the only chance u got rn is the pepper spray
Really the only thing she showed would work is the pepper spray.The alarm if it averted someone

Not even allowed pepper spray in the UK
Same in Australia. Not even allowed anything for self defence :(
and where exactly should we put these items so when we were in attack we could get it effectively? (and fast)
in a bag itll take time and we'll quickly get our hands off it at no time :(
I carry my pepper spray and knife on my lanyard around my neck when I’m outside my house so if anything happens to me I can quickly grab it. When on school grounds or places I’m unable to have weapons out I have my lanyard tied around my belt with it stuffed in my pocket or purse/bag/etc
Carry a 'koito' - quite deadly! They open coconuts🥥with them around here! 😂🤣
Good stuff but I wouldn't carry all of them in case you get flustered in the moment and don't know what to reach for. I would think pepper spray would be ideal. Just ask Johnny Knoxville

2. An attack helicopter
3. A flatulent rhino
4. A half-starved grizzly bear
5. A hornet's nest
Pepper spray is not perfume, you are supposed to spray it with your thumb for better grip

Why the hell is it even necessary to carry self-defence aids? The times we live in, people are messed up...
Are there combination weapons with a variety of legal self-defense weapons in a single unit, such as:
combined claw with buttons for knife & house or car key to protrude & tasar & silent cell signal alarm & very loud disorienting alarm & video with sound for both SD card and connectivity to smart phone app with option to include gps location & calling designated emergency numbers w/pre-recorded messages & blinding light & salt bullets & pepper spray & hybrid power source (rechargeable batteries + regular batteries + mechanical energy generator via crank &/or shaking &/or passive motion like "self-winding" watches have & micro usb for recharging cell phone Etc.)? If not, seems like an obvious marketable device!
After all, in emergencies, one can't assume there will be time for switching between separate devices.
Wouldn't hurt to offer optional accessories such as holders as wrist bands; belts with hidden compartments +/- belt buckle weapons; stealth jewelry and hair bands/clips/ decor and baseball caps that double as weapons &/or alarms -/or blue tooth vs gps tags; easy access (holster-like) ~ "fanny pack" with accessories for stuff like chemical exposure mitigation incl nose clips and oxygen canister + goggles that may as well also filter out some % of blinding light +/- single lense infrared attachment + eye wash + skin cleanser, and sound assault mitigating ear plugs, + multi tool for escaping car trunk or removing tail light for waving for help &/or leaving a trail of evidence as well as a concealable saw for cutting rope or zip ties; maybe activatable thermal modifiers like hand warmers Etc.; stimulants to partially counter some sedatives; and other accessories such as smart phone "protective cases" with stealth compartments, hidden compartments in shoe heels &/or straps &/or fasteners that local shoe-repair shops could swap with regular heels; bullet-slowing combinations (gels, steel-weave cloth, deflective angles, Etc.) incl ability to integrate separate segments (free-standing but hidden separately, re-purposing parts of containers discussed herein, integrated into normal-looking clothes &/or jackets, &/or umbrellas, Etc.) +/- sleeves for adding "every day stuff such as cooking sheets or griddles, pre-made removable metal sections from your car, Etc.; with eachother to increase coverage; underwire bras with modified wire + closure hooks + standard-looking front padding; various multi- function fabric decor such as studs & rhinestones & appliques & ribbon & inner seam self-adhering holders of misc tiny stuff; ways to limit lay-people's hand-held (relatively weak) metal-detectors from noticing hidden weapons or create uniform patterns to camouflage what can't be sufficiently blocked ; Etc.; plus a line of custom-fit items to place inside of these hidden containers.
Think 'Q' on James Bond.
Women and teens particularly would benefit from such devices (+ manufacturers could make additional profits through partnerships with App developers and approved distributors could share profits from tuition for training courses tailored to the use of their proprietary products; Etc..
I am doing pretty good I already have 2 out of 5 of the items on my key ring. I have the whistle and the flashlight. And my little flashlight can be a strobe light.
Good knowledgeable things to have. Pepper spray is only good if the wind is not blowing.
Whistle lmao.

Please understand that owning some item doesn't make you an expert on whatever that item is meant to be used for. I can buy a kitchen knife, but that doesn't make me a chef.
Glock 26 with 135 grain hydro shock and we’re done.
Eveny more effective is gun it hurts them so they immeadietley makes them release you to twnd to the wound it attracts attention and it discourages them if you open carry
So many haters.. The self alarm and pepper spray is a very good thing.. My friends dog got teared apart by a pit bull, a pepper spray could have stop the pit attack and could have saved her dog... Well the dog survived but costed her thousands of dollars surgery the spray could have prevent the attack.. If some drunk dude follows you at night and don't live you alone and try to grab your ass or someone you are with you can easily spray him without take his life just because he is a jerk.. Or when you see a man beat up his girlfriend in the street would you really end his life with a gun or just wanna stop him with a spray ? What if you make a mistake and shoot the girl instead accidently? You have to live with killing an innocent person the rest of your freakin life.. You can't carry gun everywhere you go, it's big and heavy and it takes time to unload and point it at someone.. Not to mention you can't go in many clubs or social events with that.. Do you carry a gun with you when you walk your dog or just walk to the grocery store? Nobody does that and yet that's when the most attack happens.. A pepper spray is easy to carry and you won't miss the target vs the gun, plus the pepper spray won't kill the attacker which is good.. Cause let's say you riding your bike and a dog attacks you, do you really wanna end the dog's life over that or just stop the dog?? Most people have compassion and don't wanna kill the dog or deer, they just wanna stop them from attacking so a tazor or a pepper spray is a perfect solution for that.. A personal alarm is also good cause if you just scream not many people will hear that but an alarm can draw attention from a mile away and yes most attackers will give up and run cause the noise will attract the cops and the witnesses who will come out to see wassup and these attackers don't like to take risks just like they avoid breaking into houses whre dogs barking.. Even if it's a tiny dog the noise being attention and that's the last thing they want..
