Here in Ohio tasers and stun guns are legal. I have a CCW, but there are places I can't take a gun, and there are situations when deadly force isn't legal, but "reasonable force" is (in Ohio this would include cases of robbery).

I picked up one of these tiny wonders. It packs a ONE MILLION VOLT wallop and fits nicely into my jeans' pocket. A one second test sends out a menacing display of sparks and a loud ZZZZAP. Just firing a test burst is often enough to get an assailant to change their minds.

It's nice to have something to bridge that gap between shooting somebody or being completely helpless.

Yes, unless your assailant has a gun...or thinks your
Taser would be a nice toy for him to take from you and have for his own...or both.
