It will also probably lead to a very win-able lawsuit. WOULD NOT! do this.

Mace sucks.

If you do not feel that you are emotionally capable of carrying a firearm and using it ONLY if it is NEEDED, please, don't. This is not an insult, just a polite request from a fellow CCW permit holder. I know some people really lose it over things, and I don't think they should carry unless they can take out their anger with yelling or something other than pulling their weapon. Noone really knows "how much they can handle", but if you suspect you might use lethal force in a situation because of anger and not necessity, then CCW is not for you. It is a liability that you could wish you never undertook.

Uhh, yeah, I know. That's why I made the comment. Don't throw my own comments back to me as wisdom.

Sorry, I thought you meant you carried but weren't sure if you could hold the temper back.

I find myself not going to a lot of places with my Z. It seems most of the time I'm driving it out of pleasure. There are too many ******** with no respect for other peoples property so I am hesitant to drive my Nis anywhere where I have to leave it sittin for awhile. I had a douchebag at the dealer rest his coffee mug on top of my car. At the DEALERSHIP. You think the sales guys would be more attentive. But no they don't care. He didn't even think twice about it. He probably thought what's the big deal it's not hurting it.....

I used to really be into cars. I went to a tech school thinking I wanted to be a mechanic. I worked in a Nissan Dealer in Fort Worth for a couple years. After dealing with cars day in day out. They do loose the mystique of a piece of art and because a high priced sheet metal wrapped around a motor. The salemen work and deal with the new products everyday. They are desensitzed to the new car. They forget the guy they are talking to is looking do drop a healthy portion of their annual salary (in most cases).

I have only come close to keying a car once. It was just a bad day. Tired, frustated, and on my last nerve. This new Challenger was running around and driving like a d__K all day. I had been running around town (smallish town pop. 10K) and seen this douche in passing/getting cut off all day. I couldn't find a spot in Wal Mart parking lot. This Challenger is in FRONT centered in 2 spots. If you want 2 spots get the ones in the back. I really wanted to take a screw drive and crease both rear fenders and trunk deck lid, but I didn't. Cooler minds prevailed. Had I messed up this car, the owner would probably think is was out of envy cause that is what people assume. Not that the OP is parked poorly or had offended them is someway. Somepeople just get caught at the wrong time and get set off. I totally disagree with vandalizing another person's property. If You have a problem, settle it with them not their stuff. Rant over

I NEVER put a coffee mug on someone's car. I worked for Ford in sales for about a year. Always loved the cars. Never lost any mystique, and I spent some time hanging with the techs in the shop, as well. I also hung out at the wash area. I tried to make friends with everyone at the dealership. Even the "back of the house" employees. Pays off.

Wasp spray for self defense is a bad idea. Stick with the Pepper Spray. Wasp spray is unproven and has never been tested on humans. Wasp Spray will NOT work on those who cannot feel pain i.e. drugs or alcohol. Pepper Spray is an inflammatory which will cause the eyes to slam shut no matter the situation. That’s why over 40,000 law enforcement agencies carry it nationwide and even the smallest canisters will fire 10 ft while the larger will canisters will fire 25 to 30 ft.

If you go to a hunting store and they have bear mace on sale it has the same affect! It will bring a human to there knees! Not to mention you can get it fairly cheap to lol!
