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.

Fourth of July is coming up next week...what a better way to celebrate your independence and freedom!

Independence means self-government, autonomy, liberty & individualism.

Freedom means liberty, free will, choice, independence and lack of restrictions.

These two important words mean that you, as a person, have the right to take care of and protect yourself. No one else is going to do it, not your government, not your neighbor, not the police. It's up to you.

Pepper Gel Vs. Pepper Spray

Many ask about the difference between pepper spray and pepper gel.
Here are some advantages of pepper gel:

• Sticks like glue to an attacker's face and skin, hard to wipe off
• You don't have to worry about spraying on a windy day, no "blow back" in your face
• Others around you won't be affected by spraying gel
• You can use it in an enclosed area like a car, elevator, RV because it won't contaminate the air
• Your aim doesn't have to be as accurate as with a pepper spray stream
• Many have a longer effective range

Disadvantages:

• Usually costs more 
•  

Huh, only one downside? Wouldn't you spend a bit more to get the strongest pepper spray available in gel form with all these advantages?

Sounds like a "no brainer" to me!

I've created many self defense kits recently. They range from basic personal protections, home security, dorm room safety, macho man kits, auto safety, and more.

All include some type of strong pepper spray, from a pepper spray, pepper fogger, pepper baton, lipstick pepper spray and more. Pepper spray is the easiest self defense weapon to carry and use.

Why Don't Young Men Think They Need Protection?

This afternoon I dropped my 19 yr. old son off at the train station, on his way back into the city after spring break, and told him to be careful, like I usually do.

He gave me the usual look and said he had his weapons with him, raising his two fists. I just shook my head and warned him again, knowing that nothing I said would really matter.

He sees no need to carry a self defense product with him because he's a young, tall, strong man. What if he was attacked by several other young, strong men with weapons? I could think of a lot of other "what if's" but I tell myself he'll be OK.

As a woman, I carry the strongest pepper spray available on my key chain, and have other "things" in my purse so I feel safer.

Maybe the constant reminders to my son will sink into his brain and will be there to help him if he needs it one day.

Strong Pepper Spray for Men

Many searches online are for the strongest pepper spray available for women because, unfortunately, women are the victims most of the time.

But there are men out there who want or need strong pepper spray also. They may work or travel in bad areas, they may drive a truck cross country all alone, they may work alone in questionable sections of a city.

Men want to feel safe also.

So for those men, there's a super large size Wildfire 18% Fogger Pepper Spray. This comes in a 9 oz size or a 1 pound size, providing lots of hot spraying power. Wildfire 18% Fogger Pepper Spray may be the strongest pepper spray available.  This powerful pepper spray has a range of up to 20' to keep an attacker far away, way more than most.

Keep this large pepper spray next to you in your car or truck, on your nightstand, near your front door, in your basement or garage, or on your tool belt. 

Whether you're a strong macho man type or not, protect yourself with this effective non lethal self defense product.

Double Up on Your Defense

I know this blog is about pepper spray, but today I want to talk about some other self defense products you need to know about.

Sometimes having a strong pepper spray alone just won't do the job. Depending on your situation, a Compact Stun Gun or a small personal alarm will come in handy.

If you're indoors and can't use your pepper spray, your stun gun will zap your attacker. A small personal alarm has an loud ear-piercing sound that may send your attacker running away because it'll draw attention.

Having multiple self defense products increases your odds against an attack. These items can be inexpensive and are easy to use. Why not get a few?

What Puts The "Hot" in Pepper Spray?

I'm assuming everyone know that there's really pepper in pepper spray, but how do they get it in that little canister?

Somehow, in the pepper spray factory, the hot capsicum extract is sucked out of those hot little peppers, mixed with a solution of liquids like water and propylene glycol (an emulsifier-makes it mix up good). Then it's all pressurized in an aerosol canister so you can spray it at the bad guys.

Because of the mixture, someone can't just wash the stuff off his face after being sprayed. Splashing only water will help, and time, about 30-45 minutes. Soaps and creams will just work it into the skin.

The different amounts of "hot" in pepper sprays depends on the peppers used and how concentrated the solution is. So make sure you buy the strongest pepper spray available to stop any attackers.
