    Tell me again why we can’t have simple nonlethal self-defensive tools? Capsicum spray?

      7:06, Blend scotch bonnets, ghosts, habaneros with vinegar…..put in mini-spray bottle.

      Now you have legal pepper spray.

      Your welcome.

        I recognise that, and thank you. We have also talked about various bug sprays in the past. The issue is not that it’s illegal to carry these compounds, but illegal to use them.

        I know. I can’t believe it either. Last time around in which we wrangled this issue, it was determined by a legal expert that self-defense via a chemical spray would likely be judged as an ‘offensive weapon’.

        I would guess that if anyone created such a device that it might be advisable to open up the aperture of the device such that it projected a stream, rather than a mist that could easily be drifted back on yourself.

        I might be just the person to challenge the legal statutes by using such a compound. Either that or get my ass shot off. Such devices should be used with prudence, and never merely in defense of your wallet. Big pain in the rear to replace my licence and other stuff, but nothing there of any real value. I don’t carry much money. Don’t have much money.

    Sounds like the usual drugs or numbers, crime is perfectly stable though, nothing to worry about people.

    Martin Drive needs bulldozing. The squalor encourages more squalor.
