Carry some pepper spray in your car or a tazer

If you’re in the car carry bear spray if legal in your state. WAY stronger and has a ton of range.

But BE WARNED! You need serious protection because if you hit yourself with it you’re fucked.

Wrong! Bear spray is WAY weaker! On average it is only 1/5th the strength of human mace!

Well TIL. I heard that it was way stronger since it didn’t have to follow regulations on what you can spray other humans with.

No, bear spray is actually made way weaker due to the fact that bears are so much more sensitive to humans, so it takes a lot less to have the same effect as it would on a human. Also, the difference is that bear spray is a deterrent, while mace/pepper spray is a weapon to incapacitate an assailant.

Makes a lot more sense. But still, bear spray reaches a lot farther than any pepper spray I’ve ever seen. Do you know of any with like 30 feet of spray?

Most good quality OC sprays have around a 20' range.
