Defend Thyself

We just started to watch an interesting show on Spike TV online; Surviving Disaster Season 1. This first episode is 42 minutes long and is on home invasions, where they simulate 2 home invasions and how you can help defend yourself.

One is about a home robbery, the other a well planned kidnapping. They start with the home invasion robbery. They say there are 8,000 home invasions every day in North America, 8,000 freaking thousand home invasions on this continent.

Oh, I think we forgot to mention we were wrong on the 1,000,000 violent crimes every year, we apologize, there are 4,000,000 violent crimes in the USA each year.

So watch the video and pick up some tips. We will give you a few good tips here to prevent or slow down a home invasion robbery:

1. Your first line of defense will be to set up a perimeter motion activated alarm system. Something as inexpensive as the Voice Alert Driveway And Home Alarm System can be set up with extra sensors to blanket your property with an invisible beam that will alert you when it’s been broken by an intruder. That’s when you grab your guns, or non-lethal self defense products.

2. Your 2nd line of defense is to keep your windows and doors locked, even when you are inside. Many home invaders come in the front or back door. Pick up a few inexpensive window alarms like the Glass Guard Window Alarm, and a couple door alarms that will sound off when opened, like the Entry Alarm with RF Remote Control. Now they are at the gates, trying to break into your castle; get ready for them to come blasting in.

3. Now you need weapons, lethal work the best, though non-lethal will stop invaders just as well. HOWEVER, you have to be trained so they are not used against you. Training is the key to having the confidence to use any lethal or non-lethal self defense product.

We like the shotgun for its devastating firepower and ability to get the job done. Also large caliber revolvers pack man stopping force, and they won’t jam at the wrong time. 357 Magnum is a great choice.

For non-lethal, you have a few options. A large pepper spray of 1lb in a fogger will allow you to back-peddle to a safe room, filling the attackers with a cloud of pepper fog that will choke them and slam shut their eyes and throat so just breathing will be difficult. We like the Wildfire 18 Percent Pepper Spray One Pound Pistol Grip to quickly fill a room with some really hot pepper spray.

Another choice is the Mace Pepper Gun, which shoots the potent Mace 10% formula up to 25 feet, giving you plenty of room between you and the attacker. About the size of a flare gun, it uses these cartridges that really pressurize the spray to launch it that far.

And finally, the TASER M18L, which is a glorified stun gun that can electrify a punk from up to 15 feet away with the patented TASER® fluctuating delivery system. We just wrote an article called Is The TASER C2 The Worlds Wimpiest Stun Gun? and it was posted it over at Agoravox. They allow you to listen to it as an MP3, with a computer reading it. Pretty cool! We will post all of our articles there so we can get a MP3 copy.

Anyway, you get the picture; start by protecting the perimeter of your property first, then the ability for invaders to get in the house, then what to do when they get inside.

More to come…

Remember, pepper spray first & ask questions later…

We have not talked about the Telescopic Steel Baton for some time. We forgot how great a telescopic steel baton is for a self defense product.

What resembles a little foam rubber device, actually extends to a strong baton with the flick of a wrist. Here, watch this quick demonstration for a quick laugh to break up your day.

You can get them in 3 sizes, 16, 21, or 26 inches. They come with a carrying case, and fit easily in a purse or pocket. While I would NOT carry one of these puppies on the plane with you, like Snoop Dog did and got arrested, you can put them in your checked baggage.

Non lethal, quick to get ready to use, and can do serious harm to the punk that’s messing with you, check out the Telescopic Steel Baton web page.

We have been flapping our lips about their being over 1 million violent crimes every year according to the FBI , and then we see in the paper this weekend that crime is actually steady or dropping.

"What???" I say, I could not believe it, so I read a little more and it says that the Justice Department reported that property crimes dropped 9% from 147 to 135 per 1,000 people, and there were an ESTIMATED 4.9 MILLION VIOLENT CRIMES IN 2008!!!

OMG, that’s 5x the amount of violent crime in this country than we though occurred. You can do one thing to tip the scales in your favor. The Mace Pepper Gun is one of the best non-lethal self defense products on the market due to its ability to shoot pepper spray up to 25 feet, keeping you safe from a street punk.

The Mace Pepper Gun comes in 4 colors; blue/black, silver, pink, and blue. It’s kind of like a flare gun, as it uses a cartridge to pressurize the spray. It uses the wicked 10% Mace pepper spray formula, and you can stick it in your pocket, purse, or pick-up a holster and wear it on your side. Though only guys in West Hollywood would wear the pink one on their side. Ladies, put it in your purse.

Unless you get a pepper ball gun, there is no other non-lethal self defense product out there will launch molten hot pepper spray into a punks face further than the Pink Mace Pepper Gun. This is also one of the best products to stop a home invasion robbery, except a street sweeper shotgun…

Remember to spray first & ask question later!

Looks like TASER International came to their senses & re-issued their TASER M18L, which looks kind of like a Colt .45. While the TASER C2 is a great device for civilians, a security guard carrying a leopard TASER C2 might look out of place.

Advanced TASER M18L

So for all of our security customers, or citizens who want the best non-lethal self defense way to drop a punk in seconds, you can go back to the M18L. What’s great about it is the laser sight, that you can point at the subjects chest to insure an accurate shot.

Then you can add the optional cartridge holder for the end of the pistol grip, so you always have a spare.

And, we will include either a FREE Fox Labs Mean Green Pepper Spray 3 Oz and 2x FREE Sudecon Pepper Spray Decontaminate Wipes to help get rid of the burn once the punk is in hand-cuffs, or if it blows back into your face, that’s a $26.95 value!

or the Secondary Cartridge Clip For The Advanced TASER M18, a $29.95 value!

It’s your choice, just mention the Fox Pepper Spray or the Secondary cartridge clip in the comments section when you check-out.

Remember, use your TASER device first, and ask questions later…
