So the object is to make attackers dry heave at your tacticool sights?

Oh, I guess I'm too European to recognize a handgun from the bearer's POV. I thought the shiny parts could be taser-related...

Cans in a bag are going to have too much of a wind up time to be a good defense utility

i recommend always stocking a bit on durables, you never know when you'll need them.

for example, the other day i went grocery shopping the supermarket had closed because i forgot it's holiday. good thing i had food stocked up for such cases.

Always have spare of everything you use regularly. Don’t shop when you’re out, shop when you have no spare.

Also, have way too much extra water and a portable gas stove for power/gas/water outages.

How ridiculous. Just keep a knife in your handbag at all times.

Or better yet just carry a gun around. Nobody will bat an eye.

I like my pepper spray. It's right in easy reach hanging off my bag and it's bright pink and visible. Like a bee's stripes.

Cans aren't gonna do shit against a feral crackhead, I recommend hollow points.
