Why You Need Self Defense Products

By Teresa Bernard

Most people never expect to have a need for self-defense equipment. They may feel if they own a stun gun or canister of pepper spray, they are accepting the fact that some day the unthinkable might happen. Figuring if they don't think about self-defense, they will never need it. This couldn't be further from the truth. The unfortunate reality is, the world is not a safe place. There are "sickos", "weirdoes" and perverts out there with one thing in mind, their pleasure and your agony. Personal security devices are essential tools in today's unsafe world. Here's a few reasons why:

1) Self defense products are necessary as a precaution against an attack.

Possessing self defense equipment is like owning a car insurance policy. No one ever expects to get into an auto collision, but we carry insurance anyway just in case we ever do. This is why it is so important to carry defensive weapons with you or keep them where you can easily get at them if you should ever need them. These tools are great to have around if you should ever need them. It's considerably better to have something and not need it than to need something and not have it.

2) Assaults are commonplace in this day and age. Most take place suddenly and unexpectedly, and they can happen to anyone.

Self-defense products are a necessary means of survival these days because it is rare for someone to go through life without at least one confrontation with an assailant. By carrying pepper spray, a stun gun or some other defensive device, you have a means to protect yourself against that degenerate attacker; even one much larger or stronger than you. Defending yourself against a mugger who means you serious harm is not only the right thing to do, it is the morally superior thing to do. After all this person has gone out of his way to inflict harm on you for his gain.

3) The only person you can count on in an attack is YOU.

We live in a dangerous world with too many drugs, gangs, robberies, assaults, rapes, home intrusions, etc. There simply aren't enough law enforcement officials to be on every street corner in every city. You cannot rely on help from bystanders either; most are too concerned for their own safety to come to your rescue. If you are attacked, it is unlikely anyone, even the police, will come to your aid soon enough. Let's face it; it will be up to you to defend yourself by any and all means available. To keep you and yours safe, it is essential you carry some sort of self-defense device that will temporarily disable the thug providing you an avenue of escape.

Bear in mind that you can possess all the self defense products obtainable, but they will be of no consequence if you don't use them. You must be willing to use them without hesitation if you are ever attacked. The best part about these self defense weapons is they are non-lethal. They will not leave any permanent effects. They are only designed to bring your attacker down long enough for you to escape and get to safety. - 31373
