One step closer buster, and I bring out the bug spray!

some women are stupid. My .40 XDM beats wasp spray hands down. And it even works if the wind is blowing my direction!
My wife prefers .380 for spraying bugs.
Only if you hold a flame in front of it ;)
Well, it is a "pest"icide.
Ammonia. Just saying.
While this has advantages and disadvantages, we should be open minded enough to realize that guns also have advantages and disadvantages, as do knives, swords and other bladed weapons, and blunt objects and other weapons.
I got a very good lesson in psychology years ago, when I saw some capable karate students in a serious ring fight, in which they were required to wear boxing gloves. But other than that it was pretty much MMA. They were used to bare knuckle fighting, and instead of kicking, which they were good at, they were focused instead on the gloves, and did miserably. Finally one of them ignored the gloves, and kicked his opponent senseless.
It taught me that a weapon can be a serious crutch, if you are too reliant on just it. It is far better to think outside the box, and imagine your weapon as just part of the scenario.
And *all* weapons have advantages and disadvantages.
In World War II, the OSS, predecessor of the CIA, taught its agents that *anything* can be used as a weapon, and that they needed to imagine how the most ordinary things can be used as weapons. So that no matter the circumstances, they would be mentally prepared to fabricate a weapon.
This is also an important defensive lesson as well, as your opponent might do the same.
Next idea, ladies?
wasp spray is all well and good but what happenz if your attacker is black
Might work for Yankees. Won't work in Texas. On the other hand, you won't have to worry about bugs in your car after it explodes.
The newspapers will report your death at the hands of a white Hispanic?
**federal law prohibits the use of any pesticide “in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.” **
Yes. Read the label. I would tend to use something for cockroaches, just to be within federal guidelines.
Bug spray is nothing compared to super concentrated chlorine. If you spilled half of cup of concentrate in a room, you couldn't enter without a respirator. I can't imagine a good spray of that stuff to the face. Methhead or not, the target's eyes would be burned away almost instantly.
Obviously firearms are better but I always thought about making some long distance “chemical guns” for friends and family that can't own real guns.
would i still be guilty of a hate crime?
yeah but using this that way is also illegal and it says so right on the can. so if you’re concerned about pepper spray being illegal this should also concern you.
personally i’d use it that way if it was the only thing around or closest thing handy, notice on can, or not.
Spray them with bug spray then grab their gun. If they shoot first they got the first zap and there’s is lethal.
Depends on your ethnicity...

I don’t think women realize just how much different (ie stronger) the average guy is to the average gal. I was just reading something here last week about the average woman in her twenties at the height of strength and such has the aerobic capacity of an average guy who’s 50. I didn’t even know it was that markedly different.
