Tips To Use A Pepper Spray For Self-Defense – Part 1
The expert explains that the correct attitude in using a pepper spray can mean the difference between defending or complicating a situation of violence.
A recurring question in personal safety courses is that if carrying a pepper spray will be useful when one has to defend against a potential aggressor.
Carrying a personal defense spray is no guarantee of anything. Pepper sprays such as impact guns, scabbards, blackjacks, mitts, etc. or short-hand weapons like penknives, knives, push daggers, etc., even firearms, are first and foremost inanimate objects. The possession of any of these weapons not only guarantees success in the confrontation, but it may complicate the situation.
If you are thinking of buying a pepper spray for your personal safety, you need to know what its characteristics are and the conditions of your application.
Most of the containers contain
How and when to use it?

Tips To Use A Pepper Spray For Self-Defense – Part 2
We will continue the second part of this article with the tips to use pepper spray.
We know that violent actions such as crimes against us are always preceded by danger indicators that will warn us that the chances of being attacked are increasing, so we must be careful to have the pepper spray in a pocket or carry it in the hand to be used quickly.
Although the spray is easy to use, consider how to apply it since the trigger has a position that acts as safe to avoid accidental shots.

Paralyzing Gas
Another myth is to believe that when spraying the attacker, this will paralyze, which is nothing further from reality. It is true that in some commercials, the selling phrase says ‘paralyzing gas’, but this is not so. We must remember that it is a spray that triggers an irritant solution, therefore, it is not to be expected that the aggressor will faint. But not to disappoint, since once applied on the face of the aggressor, it will generate irritation and limit the ability to see and this is not little as it will give you the time and distance needed to attack or escape.
The effects of the pepper spray will depend basically on the concentration of OC that container has, the distance in which it is applied and, of course, the personal characteristics of the aggressor.

It is good to know that different types of pepper sprays are marketed, and there are some that incorporate in addition to the irritating agent tear gas.
Personally, I consider that if a person who by his/her work or any type of circumstance can be subjected to violent actions, dispensing with a spray of pepper is a mistake. Sometimes it is healthy to keep in mind that the resource of violence is in all of us, what
