If you don't have a gun,
here's a more humane way to
wreck someone's evil plans for you.
Wasp
Spray
A
friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk area was
concerned about someone coming into the office on Monday to rob them
when they were counting the collection. She asked the local
police
department about using pepper spray and they recommended to her that
she get a can of wasp spray instead. The wasp spray, they told her, can
shoot up to twenty feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the
pepper spray, they have to get too close to you and
could overpower
you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they get to
the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her desk in the office
and it doesn't attract attention from people like a can of pepper spray
would. She also keeps one nearby at home for home protection. Thought
this was interesting and might be of use.
On
the heels of a break in and beating that left an elderly woman in
Toledo dead, self defense experts have a tip that could save your life.
Val Glinka teaches self-defense to students at Sylvania Southview High
School . For decades, he's suggested putting a can of wasp and hornet
spray near your door or bed. Glinka says, "This is better
than
anything I can teach them." Glinka considers it inexpensive,
easy to
find, and more effective than mace or pepper spray. The cans typically
shoot 20 to 30 feet; so if someone tries to break into your
home,
Glinka says "spray the culprit in the eyes". It's a tip he's given to
students for decades. It's also one he wants everyone to
hear. If
you're looking for protection, Glinka says look to the spray. "That's
going to give you a chance to call the police; maybe get
out." Maybe
even save a life.
Please
share this with all the people in your life.
