Using Pepper Spray and Mace
|
The most important thing you can do is be aware of your environment.
Pepper spray and mace are only good if you have it ready, know how to use
it, use it from a distance, and most importantly see the attacker coming.
Don't talk on you cell phone while walking to your car. Pay attention.
Having 3-year-old spray in the bottom of your purse which you've never
even tried out will do nothing. Spray is just like a gun. You have to
know when and where to use it and be prepared to pull the trigger.
The NRA recommends that you buy two pepper spray bottles of the same type
and practice with one. Shoot a mark on a wall or a fence. Otherwise you
may be shooting your own face or the attacker's knees when you really
need it.
