@starsandrobots Saved my teeth more than once. Good balance of deterrent-by-flashing, but also low-impact enough to follow through on. -
@moxie@starsandrobots My understanding is that only flashing pepper spray is inadvisable -- gives attacker a chance to prepare. -
@codebutler Makes sense; my experience has been that people are irrationally terrified of pepper spray and bolt. YMMV.@starsandrobots
