Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

How and Where to Buy Pepper Spray

By Christopher M. Seymour


With the increasing crime rate across the nation, we need to be more alert and prepared for any instance of crime that may come and threaten us. Pepper spray, also known as OC spray (Oleoresin Capsicum), is just one form of safety measure that can be used to defend ourselves against attackers who intend to hurt or harm you. A small container can easily disperse enough chemical to confuse your attacker by causing temporary blindness for 15-30 minutes, long enough for you to escape. Most of these sprays also contain a UV dye that is not visible to the attacker and takes several days to wear of, this can be of value to the police if the individual is caught. Some also have CS in them, this is similar to riot control gas that police use it causes uncontrolled choking and coughing.

So where do you buy pepper spray and other self-defense products? Most department or outdoors stores usually carry a small selection. They will typically have the small 1/2 oz models, normally in a plastic our leather case and large models that are labeled as bear sprays. If you find it in a discount or club store be sure to check the expiration date, most canister are good for 3 to 4 years if they are close you may not be getting much of a deal. local gun dealers carry a wider selection and may be newer, drawback you are going to pay a premium price to them. You can ask friends and relatives if they have purchased sprays you might be surprised how many other people own them or have looked for sprays also.

Since there are so many sizes and types of pepper spray, you need to think about how and when you might need to use it. There are also pepper gels and pepper foam, having different types of coverages and spray ranges. Sprays range from 10% to 18% strength, and some have identifying dyes and tear gas included in the spray. Also, your state may have restrictions on the type and strength of the pepper spray, so make sure you check. Sizes range from oz. and up. There are sprays that attach to your key chain, some that attach to your car visor, and larger ones to keep in a safe place at home. Whatever size spray you chose, make sure you try a practice spray in a safe place so you're ready if you ever need it.

Many online shops are catering to and offering self-defense sprays. These sites give customer a place to leave feedback about the stores reputation and service as well as prices and promos. Individuals that are interested in buying self-defense sprays or other products, should look a few sites, read there reviews, they should not be all positive, if they are the owner is deleting comments and you may want to just move on. After all no one or business is perfect. There is pretty good competition out there between these sites, so you can get some good deals and there merchandise is normally rather fresh due to boom in internet sales.

Last thought for you there are review websites that can help you find reliable shops to purchase these types of sprays as well as other self-defense products.These reviews often have inquiries like "where do you buy pepper spray?" and other questions commonly asked by interested buyers. By reading the responses of others we can locate information about what self-defense products are bought more and what companies are most reliable. Where ever you decide to go and purchase your spray, please check your local state regulations as to what dealers are allowed to sell these sprays. Also, most states require you to be 18 years of age in order to purchase and carry such products.

A lot of people I have met and talked to say that buying pepper spray is a daunting task. For some reason people think that obtaining such a spray requires you to go out and get some sort of license. They couldn't be farther from the truth. Pepper spray can be bought almost anywhere such as department stores, hardware stores and local gun shops. Believe me when I tell you its not hard to by the hot stuff.

Besides buying pepper spray at a store, you can buy it from several places online. Why go out and waste gas when you can easily get what you want online.Pepper spray's main ingredient is oleoresin capsicum, which is a chemical that is derived from cayenne peppers. The main thing to remember when you buying your spray is to make sure you get the best stuff out there. You want something with the highest amount of active ingredient. Make sure its a hot one so you don't have to worry about your assailant getting back up. That's the ultimate goal here.

When someone is looking for a self defense spray I know they want something that will keep them safe and prevent who knows what. Just buy a spray with a high concentrate and you should be fine. One more thing to consider is your states laws.Most states have no restrictions with concealing and carrying pepper spray. As of this writing there are several states that do not allow pepper spray shipping. They are as follows: out of the U.S.A., to WI, NY, MA or MI. Although they cant be shipped it does not mean that you cant buy them in your state. Check local and federal laws if your not sure. I always tell people to look online first and if they find something that does not mention their state restriction to buy it there. Other than that check local gun/sportsman shops.

Most grown-ups come out in office clothes, toting unwieldy bags and hefty suitcases, hands tied to cell phones and personal effects, none of which makes us ready to come face to face with an attacker. We do not step out of the house anticipating trouble. Most adults have desk jobs and little to no self-defense skills. With the mace pepper spray, literally, attackers do not get to come face to face with us.

One good thing about buying pepper spray is that most of them have several different safety switches and latches which prevent accidental discharge. You don't want pepper spray to go off in your face, trust me, it does not feel good.So when deciding just make sure you use a little common sense. Pick a company that is trust worthy and that has seemingly good products. You want something with a good warranty and you want the best bang for your buck. If you follow what's in this article you should never have a problem. Good Luck!If you want something that will really help you out then check out Buy Pepper Spray, it gives you tons of information about it as well as which ones are better and how to choose the right one for you.
