In the land of the Scotch Bonnett is Pepper Spray legal?
I was wondering if pepper spray is available or even legal. I once had a problem with a dog on the road that I do not want to experience again.
Picking up the fake stone didn't work this time. We did get away without getting bit.
Respect,

In short, the law in relation to pepper spray appears to be that its importation is prohibited unless the commissioner of customs and excise gives permission, but no permission is required to possess it.
Peace and Guidance

I could of sworn I saw it for sale at one of the gas stations and at a store at the start of the cliffs. At both places it's sold from behind the counter but in plain site.
IMO, it's a catch 22, if we can go there and buy or import people with badminds can also get their hands on it. I use to carry it for work and on accident got sprayed twice myself---- f-ing hurts like hell. Not 100% sure being high or drunk and using it would be really safe. Prolly safer than some local women who carry tubes of battery acid to protect against attacks/rape.

I bring it and leave it with a taxi man when I go home.Thankful I have never needed to pull it out but I feel safer after dark with it.

In a bind you can use a can of Raid bug spray but not convenient to carry around.

Any Hornet and Wasp spray works. Most are designed to spray 20 feet or more so it can reach a nest built high up. Much greater range then pepper spray or usual bug spray. Legal also.
