WIST Quotations

A quotation from Shakespeare

CONSTABLE: Disorder, that hath spoiled us, friend us now.
      Let us on heaps go offer up our lives.
ORLÉANS: We are enough yet living in the field
      To smother up the English in our throngs,
      If any order might be thought upon.
BOURBON: The devil take order now! I’ll to the throng.
      Let life be short, else shame will be too long.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
Henry V, Act 4, sc. 5, l. 19ff (4.5.19-25) (1599)

@Bronwyn Lots of articles on the Net regarding the use of force for #selfdefense

#PepperSpray is a not lethal weapon but you can not use a level of force greater than that used against you.

In practical terms, you cannot be legally justified to use pepper spray unless someone has committed an #assault &/or a #battery upon your person.

While battery requires someone to hit you with something -- hands &/or a weapon -- an assault does not.

"Assault is not limited to physical contact. Legally, it involves an intentional act creating a reasonable apprehension of imminent harmful or offensive contact. The perpetrator’s actions must be deliberate, and the victim must perceive an immediate threat."

See: legalclarity.org/is-pepper-spr

So, if you encounter someone somewhere where the perpetrator gave you a "reasonable apprehension of imminent harmful or offensive contact," feel free to use your pepper spray.

The same applies to the use of a #Taser which you should also consider carrying. Each has +'s & -'s.
