Honestly, I wish no young lady harm.

HOWEVER

If one of the troglodytes attack young American women, I certainly would hope it is one of those that are standing in airports and around the country ‘welcoming’ the so called refugees.

Apparently the pics from Europe did no good as the same action took place....

Young girls & ladies with big smiles and big signs ‘welcoming’ their Muslim friends.

As I said, I wish no harm BUT when ‘they’ start acting like they act, I hope karma takes place.

(Though I would really rather see someone around to ‘take out’ the attacker)

My top three would be:
1. Pepper spray
2. ASP baton
3. CCW pistol

I don’t currently have #1 or #2 so I will have to fall back to #3.

I have 1 to start and 3 to finish. I may have to consider getting 2.

Personally I wouldn’t waste my time. I had to employ one once and it was majorly ineffective....that is until I used it as a garrote. If you look at the u-toob vids of the Milo Berkeley riot you can see people - girls - being beaten with staffs. You can tell they’re gonna be bruised but they’re not being incapacitated. That’s about how effective they are.

How unnerving it would be to reside in a typical suburban-to-exurban neighborhood and see a bunch of seething leftwingers coming down the street and *NOT* looking like they're visiting for tea. What a conundrum.

Trump has repeatedly said bad people want to come in. It’s not too much of a stretch to assume he has intel that something really bad is afoot. We were attacked barely 8 months into Bush’s Presidency. Trump sees the strong possibility that something terrible could happen also early on his watch. And he’s not having it. He’s not playing political games or power tripping. He wants to protect us. His concern is real and these steps have to be taken. Hoping this Monday all bans are back in place. That idiot judge is playing with fire.

If they were coming down my street I would have a HD shotgun with buckshot and a rifle with lots of loaded mags in the 20-30-and 40 round variety.

Wonder if I’ll ever find out if that loon was arrested for punching that woman. I assume so, once they find him.

Don't bother with #1 (or #2 for that matter) if #3 is an option. Pepper spray can be less effective against those who are on drugs and/or under the influence of alcohol.

Also, in my opinion, the more times you are exposed to it the less effective it is against you (having been exposed to CS and OC multiple times myself)......all it does is piss me off.

If it is time to defend yourself, it is time to defend yourself. Coming to terms with dropping another human being can be hard for some people.

However, it is something all should come to terms with (in regards to self/family defense) and mentally prepare for.
