I would love that. Fantastic idea, but....Did you get the guys plate number just in case something comes of this? I think you being in the military and what you have already been through there shows that you've already grown up. Now keeping your cool is another story all together. I think the dash cam may be a good suggestion for you, seeing this is a second instance in traffic for you. Better yet just move out here, there's a house right across the street from me, then you could borrow al my games and we could bbq during the week!Originally Posted by B8TINGU

That would also be a perfectly good response. Do they sell those Tazer guns out there? That might be another good investment.I would of just shot the motherfucker :P ain't got time for that nonsense.Originally Posted by Monky Spit
In all seriousness you should of just got on the phone and called the police. Most of the time people will leave when they see you get on the phone because they don't want police involved. It sounds like this guy was just looking for a fight and they chose you.

Don't do tasers, a study showed that pepper spray is actually a better defense in those situations.I hadn't even of thought of that. Taser would be perfect.Originally Posted by porschephiliac

A can of wasp spray is just as effective and they don't have to be so close to you. Some wasp sprays can go up to 20 feet!Don't do tasers, a study showed that pepper spray is actually a better defense in those situations.Originally Posted by B8TINGU

Yea, well that is just it, a taser needs to hit it's target to be effective so aiming is very key, most people miss first time and thats all you get is a one shot deal. With a spray you just point in the general direction and sweep, the spray lasts a longer and even if the person puts up their hands in defense even residuals get on the person it could be irritating, this give you plenty of time to run or do what you need to to subdue them. I would not suggest going with anything other than a legal Pepper spray of the highest concentrate or home made paper spray, but do go organic and no pesticides. Using Wasp spray has pesticides and that can do permanent damage to the persons health: eyes, and even respiratory system (hell it may even kill them depending?) whereas pepper sprays only cause extreme discomfort, but the person will eventually recover from it. The residuals you get would be minimal compared to the person getting hit straight on (even while defending) I could go on but I think you get the picture.The concern I have with sprays is the easy probability of self infliction. I've been sprayed as part of a training exercise and it was not fun at all. I don't want residual on me if getting attached. A teaser can be effective, but again, close contact could result in infliction. I'll not worry too much about since I haven't had many incidents like this, and I could hold my own in a scrap if need be.Originally Posted by porschephiliac
Just food for thought.
