This is a good point! Sure sure we all know that OC is not a reliable as a firearm for defense, HOWEVER that only applies if youre willing to pull the trigger without a second thought. If youre going to hesitate with a lethal weapon and not going to hesitate with a non-lethal weapon then non-lethal is probably the way to go particularly for those that are not constantly training for lethal encounters (and weekends at the shooting range are not what I consider training for lethal encounters). This is an excellent point that you've brought up. I hope it makes us all think about our situations and those of the people we care about. Thanks for the enlightenment.
