I dunno, but the threat of pain and loss of sight doesn't really stack up to being dead. I'd much rather be maced or stunned than be shot. By a huge margin. I've thought about letting some friends do it to me just to see what it's like. That's NOT the kind of deterent I want to present. If something sounds like fun to try, it's not enough to stop people.
We're reading your posts, Will, but I just can't think of a better way to put it than: condiments are not as scary as guns. That's why we need to use guns on criminals. I want to scare the bloody piss out of them. I want criminals scared to leave their holes. Mace will not do that.
In fact, 3 cans of mace in those girls' purses wouldn't have done jack shit.
