I was troubled to see that the erroneous e-mail titled “Wasp Spray…important information” is still circulating, after more than two years. What is described therein is a good way to get sued for every penny that you have, for blinding some goblin. As I’ve mentioned many times in SurvivalBlog, we live in a very litigious society. People file lawsuits on any pretense. Do not use wasp spray or oven spray for self defense. Instead, buy commercially-made Mace, and or a Pepper Oil (OC) mix with ultraviolet dye. It will just as effective, yet it will reduce the chances of a lawsuit!
