So the thread on the knife attacker got me thinking. For those willing to share, what, if any, non-lethal weapons do you keep for HD? I have been heavily considering adding more to the house.
A couple considerations as well is state law on the use of deadly force. If someone if in my yard, but not meeting 4 criteria which represent he is a deadly threat, I cannot even pull a gun. However, I could use pepper spray, or some non-lethal device to remove him.
Currently we have of course guns, but also a couple baseball bats in strategic locations. However, as non-lethal goes, a baseball bat can easily be lethal especially with a good dump of adrenaline and its useful range brings a bg in closer than I would prefer.
As I said above, I was thinking maybe pepper spray or something I can use at greater range than a bat. Any thoughts? Anyone care to share on non-obvious options?
