Sounds like a really stupid way to break your own hand.

Again, mace and pepper spray should be what you consider.

If you can get cs, then fine, but normal pepper spray is pretty useless. And sprays are easily dodged in any case.

If you say so. They make cans of that stuff that are small ebough for a pocket but when discharged you can cover some ground and soak someone from head to toe quickly, and at a good distance.

Why would they? It would be better to carry an ASP, OC, or, obviously, a firearm.

Oh, my mistake. Refer to the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004.

How about pepperspray and then some brass knuckles action? Sounds like a win-win situation.

I might grab one of these that I can keep in my coat pocket.

When you get it, have someone spray you with it while you try to attack them, you will see its effectiveness;):p
