I've been thinking about this subject for awhile and I can never seem to bite the bullet and order one. I'm not even sure what's stopping me. It feels like I'm making a bigger deal than necessary by getting one but it really is my life on the line here. Had that lady beaten me with her club like she wanted I don't think I would have ever emotionally recovered or felt safe again. The way the police offericers harassed me for 18 hours while I was already suicidal could have very easily been the final nail in my coffin. I don't think I'm left with much choice and I want to urge others who are in my situation or similar to consider getting one. It could save your life and save others from varying degrees of confusion I feel.
