May I politely suggest a reputable brand of pepper spray like Sabre Red or POM, it works at a decent range, and is more reliably effective than tasers. Spray across the eyes then run away.

I have a concealed carry permit and own a handgun. Better than a taser or pepper spray.

Also not a replacement for people also adapting how they behave in public, but I think we agree on that.

I conceal carry too, but I think pepper spray is more useful. Thereโ€™s a lot of gray area where someone could definitely be a threat but may or may not be a deadly threat in the eyes of the law or oneโ€™s conscience.

Like would you rather maker sure an attacker is stabbing you or risk using unjustified deadly force, or would you rather just spray and GTFO?

Those sprays I recommended are quite strong streams, Sabre gel might work a bit better. You can shield your face while spraying or try to move laterally so you arenโ€™t directly downwind.

You can buy training sprays that will let you test out the power and angle of the pepper spray without actually macing anyone. I recommend that to my girlfriends who want to carry pepper spray, helps to build confidence and is also fun!
