How about a police baton? I got a cheap one after a non lethal self defense course at work. Even have a card saying I was trained in head bustin. Carry it for my neighbors dogs plus pistol.

I'd rather get caught with a .380 in my pocket than that here In Ohio.

I can get a CCW for the .380 . . . I'll be talking to the judge (s)  if I'm caught with that thing of yours.

May God bless,

Spot on.  In Ohio, we have a Concealed Handgun License  CHL.  Which means just that - a concealed handgun. Anything else concealed “as a weapon” violates the Ohio statute. My pocket knife or fixed blade knife is always carried as a tool. Know your local laws.

What you miss is that good people in the US are under tremendous pressure from the scum of the world sneaking into their country. No other country in this world is overrun by millions of illegal aliens with no concept of law and order from crime-ridden countries. US people are wise to carry and entitled to that.

And slap-jack is a less-than-lethal alternative for keeping the scum of the world in line. Do you prefer them just being shot instead? I would, but you probably don't.

I'm all for armed and safe and a huge fan of the 2nd amendment. However your statement implies that everyone taking a run at the boarder is a hardened criminal intent on crime in the USA, while a percentage of those trying to get in are criminals and are trying to take advantage I find it pretty hard to believe that 5 year olds offer the threat to the US that your statement implies. The majority of people just want a better life. I also have to state that applying for legal entry is the way to go. Or better yet clean up your own country and make it safe for everyone. 

As to your statement that you would prefer to shoot them? shoot who, all the illegals trying to get into the USA?

Nope, I was not generalizing at all. It was not my intent to imply that. I was only specifically referring to the scum of the world.

Besides that, one has to consider long-term demographic effects of illegal immigration: high probability of poverty and ghettoization that in the subsequent generations cause high risk of 2nd+ generation youths leading criminal lifestyle. Border controls that had existed, until recently, in most developed nations kept tabs on that. US does not have border controls for many decades now. US authorities do not know who enters their country, so you especially have no way of knowing it. They may be ISIS operatives, Taliban sympathizers, Moro fighters, Somalian and Nigerian pirates, Columbian cartel executioners, drug mules, or whoever else imaginable.

No control means no way of knowing who comes and goes. So it is irresponsible to assert that everyone who crosses the border are good, hardworking individuals.

ya wanna bet? not directly, but indirectly

Its been revealed in the last few days that eastern europeans are grooming children as young as 3 years old and sending them as 'refugees' to the UK for the illegal child sex trade

The child is sent to UK. Under World Refugee Laws unaccompanied children must be accepted. No sooner than the child is known to be in the UK a 'relative' shows up to claim guardianship of the child

The child is not at fault in this vile business. They are being used by evil people. And those people are undermining the morals of our societies

First of all, read what I wrote. I very clearly stated that I'm against illegal immigration. Second, I did not say they were all hardworking individuals. I said they aren't all "scum of the world" or as you point out,  "ISIS operatives, Taliban sympathizers, Moro fighters, Somalian and Nigerian pirates, Columbian cartel executioners, drug mules, or whoever else imaginable".

Yes, I want to bet on that. You cannot compared a victimized child to a criminal. The child isn't the threat. The assholes that are trafficking them are the threat.

wasp spray is a fantastic idea

Wasp spray does not work on humans, It works on exoskeletal insects by plugging the small holes called spiracles that they breathe through. But you could still be charged with assault and what excuse could you give for carrying a can of wasp spray? Just an urban legend, at least the Raid brand that was tested.
