where can i buy pepper spray

i live in a city where i have to cross street where a lot of gang members jump people for no reason
i need pepper spray to fend them off
can someone tell me where i can get them

Your other posts scare me. No.

You do realize you may live in a state/county/shire/municipality/country that does not allow you to own pepper spray?

Wal-Mart

How old are you and where are you located?

Google search name of state/city and penal code-should find a nice site ending in .gov that has a list of local penal codes, search through it under weapons.

Good luck.

what is a penal code
n what is a mace
isnt it one of those sting with a steel chain attacked to those spikey stuff
sounds kinda dangerous to me

pe·nal Audio pronunciation of "penal" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pnl)
adj.

I like to take turns answering questions.

i said it up there
i wanna ask too
would it be more affective to use a stun gun

Ok, I missed that you are 13.

No store is going to sell a thirteen year old a weapon-both mace/pepper spray are considered chemical weapons, a stun gun is also considered a weapon.

Advantage of mace/pepper spray is you can be several feet away from the assailant. If you use a fog type sprayer, can use on a group that is close together.

Stun gun the assailant must be within arms length, can only use against one person at a time.

You don't have to be specific about your location. I really just wanted what state/country. Since you are 13 you'll have to wait a few more years to buy pepper spray.

do they sell it like behind locked glass or is it on the shelf
should i get an older person to buy it for me

You should do neither! You are not old enough to have it.

OK i am also a teenager, and i live in an area where it is occasinally necessary to defend myself ( i have gotten jump more that 5 times in the last year , though i was never hurt more than a bloody nose or black eye)but a cheap weapon that is easy to use is this : 1) get a roll of nickles
2) wrap in 1 lairof duct tape ( so it dosen't fall apart)

it can be used either as a fist "enhancer" (used to add mass and power to punches.
or
if you are being attacked by one person you can chuck it at their face and run as fast as you can either
1) in the oppisite direction
2) at them while they are distracted (this should only be done if you know for a fact that the person will be able to catch you, even with the headstart you gain from hitting them with the nickles

while i hope you never have to use either of these two tequniqes, i hope that you will find this informative, and would like anyone else in this forum who can think of moore application for simalar weapons to come forward, as it couild prove to be quite an interesting conversation.

So you're saying to fend off "gang members" he should hit them and throw stuff at them?

Vesratile, I can't afford nickels-could I use penneys instead?
Or when I get rich, would quarters work?

Does it have to be duct tape, it can't be electricians tape or just scotch tape?

Before you go bashimg people with nickels read this.
