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.

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!

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.

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?
