subject: Buy Self Defense Products For Women-their Best Self Defense [print this page] You may not realize this but women are the targets of violence in the vast majority of assaults,street crime, domestic violence, even home invasions. It is nine out of every 10 cases to be precise. And that is here in the United States. In other countries where women are treated worse the statistics are even worse.
And one of the best things that women can do to defend themselves is to be aware that they are potential targets virtually their whole lives. I am not trying to scare anyone but to make them aware of a fact.
If women know that fact, then they can take some proactive steps in defending themselves. The first thing would be to take a basic self-defense class. There are plenty available to choose from online distributors. Once you get one, practice with a friend until your self confidence builds.
The next thing would be to get some self defense products. These are a nonlethal alternative to deadly force of hand guns. Law enforcement agencies around the world have stun devices and pepper sprays on the utility belt of their officers. To me that's quite an endorsement.
Self defense tools like stun guns, pepper sprays and tasers are all meant to give you time to escape a potentially dangerous situation. You can seek help if you want or just get away.
Pepper sprays will give you up to 45 minutes to get away. Stun guns 5 to 10 minutes.
Self defense items have become immensely popular with civilians in the last 10 years. The best place to get them is online where selection and price competition can't be beat.
When are you getting one?
I always advise that if you feel threatened by an assailant point a charging stun gun at him and hold it up for the bad guys to see the flying current and hear the sounds. A 'back off' warning may scare him away when he sees what you have. From a distance the crackling noise alone and blue sparks that stun guns give off when activated may be enough to keep attackers at bay.
If you think crime can only happen to the other guy you are wrong. The "other guy" is thinking the same thing and to him you are that "other guy". There is a reason why they call it self defense. You have to protect yourself, your family, your home and business!!
Chances are if you are reading this that crime has touched your life in some way or you consider yourself at risk. Take the next step and do something to protect yourself! Your life and safety is worth far more than the cost of one of these.
If you are in the market for a self defense product look for quality, effectiveness, and a biggie-LEGALITY. Stun guns are not legal in some states. Check with your local police department first before you get one.
