What if George Had Pepper Spray?

In case you've been on vacation in some remote tropical place, the breaking news is that George Zimmerman has been acquitted of the murder of Trayvon Martin in Florida. Riots and protests ensued, Stevie Wonder is boycotting the state of Florida, opinions are flying around, the jurors are in hiding, the feds are threatening to get involved, and so on.

All in the name of self defense!

You may be wondering what exactly is self defense. When can it be used, how may it be used, can a weapon be used, if so, what kind? Lethal or non-lethal? Should you just run away, retreat? What if you can't? What if you're being held down and attacked?

What if George had the strongest pepper spray or a high voltage stun gun instead of a hand gun? He still could have defended himself and Trayvon would still be alive.

Anyways, we'll never know what really happened that night, and both men made mistakes, sadly, one of them fatal.

Our products at Platinum Security Products are non-lethal self defense weapons. They are effective and have no permanent damage to an attacker. Chances are slim that you'll wind up in court after using them.
