Pepper Spray

Filed under: Family — bruce @ 11:29 pm
Pepper spray is illegal in quite a few states. In some of these states it is legal for the policemen to carry it but citizens can’t. The question is about whether pepper spray, and other similar weapons classes, are deadly. Studies have been done on pepper spray and while there is a very small chance someone might have a bad reaction and die to pepper spray it is highly unlikely. The risk of someone having a bad reaction to pepper spray is significantly higher. These symptoms may include temporary blindness, headache, flu like symptoms, respiratory problems, and more. Many individuals feel bad for up to a week after exposure to pepper spray. Other weapons that don’t involve gas that aren’t as controversial, but still are to some degree, include stun guns and stub batons. flashlight stun guns reduce mortality rates because officers are able to force individuals to stop whatever they are doing. The stun gun affects their nervous system and will cause them to fall to the ground immediately. The small fry stun gun is a little different in shape but it works the same way as a stun gun. It keeps suspects from doing anything stupid because they are unable to function physically for up to half an hour after being stunned.
