It's for anyone who feels they may need to make someone's eyes feel
like they are burning.
Anyway, why are you being harassed? In what way are you being
harassed?

I first thought you said you carry "a mace" - which would be a lot
cooler than a can of mace.

And who is that it harassing you? If they're people your age or
slightly older, these following suggestions are guaranteed to help.

Unisteve's patented way of not getting harassed:
-never smile
-swear at people who harass you (if you're forceful and confident it
makes them feel bad)
-keep not smiling
-start working out to build muscle (tranlation: get ripped)
-swear more
-wear clothing that makes it (at least slightly) apparent that you are
ripped because you lift weights (because if no one knows you're ripped
then your training for exhibitionism will have been for naught)
-continue swearing at your harassers loudly and confidently while not
smiling

Yes, I believe that's it. I follow as many of my suggestions as I can
when I am being harassed, which is not often, because I follow my
suggestions. It is in this manner that I know my suggestions work.

Yeah, who would mess with you if you carried one of these?

True dat. Neither kind of mace would help you against Cheney (or any
other random shotgunner).

Are you getting harrassed by more than one guy? If not, ride away. If
you are, be prepared to get swarmed the second you mace one of them and
have the [censored] beat out of you.

Also, don't carry a knife. It's a good way to get stabbed or go to
jail.

There are 100 other ways out of the problems you are having here
besides carrying a weapon. Chances are if you ever get mad enough to
pull it you're going to get it taken away and used against you.

there is a wide selection of intimidating weapons, for example, any of
these would work just fine:

I believe it would be possible to use a unicycle with lethal force. if
you feel like you are riding somethng wickedly dangerous, maybe you'll
have just enough attitude about you to scare the people who are
causing you trouble.

No one has ever harrassed me when I was riding with Miss Ayerley. I can
think of no more powerful weapon than one which demands impeccable
spelling, grammar, and diction. If she's in your area, arrange a ride
with her. I believe she's located just before study hall.

ive been maced before, it feels like you stuck ur face in a fire and
snot starts comin out like *CRAZY* if you feel the need to spray a
friend or get sprayed by a friend, make sure theres a hose near by and
keep it on till it feels better (about 45 minutes(its fun to make em
find the hose on there own))

as for *A* mace, it may actually be LEGAL to carry one near your house.
OR a bow and arrows are most likely to be legal! it may even be legal
to fire it in public!

I agree with just using the uni as a weapon if a weapon must be used.
The last thing we need in the world is more people carrying weapons on
our streets because it only escalates. Big guys intimidate smaller
guys, smaller guys bring out knives or mace and the like, big guys are
now intimidated they bring bigger weapons and it escalates. You could
probably protect yourself better with a uni and no one sees it as a
weapon. Improvised weapons often are the most deadly as it is, in
Ottawa according to some police I talked to a couple years back they
are actualy the number one murder weapon here. I'm not saying that
deadly force is necesary, it totaly isn't, but I'm just saying that you
aren't helping the problem by carrying weapons.

I don't carry any weapons when I ride... extra weight, though I've
considered getting bear-level mace/pepperspray for muni in NH... I've
seen bear more than once, and there are coydogs (coyote/dog mixes)
around my riding areas too, though I've never seen them while riding.

As for being harrassed while riding by people... Aside from the
occasional clown comment and unintelligble shout out of a car window, I
haven't gotten anything yet. To quote the Superfriendz song "Karate
Man":
"Your knowledge and confidence and power is more than enough" 😄

Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
remain.

I always carry a pen. Beats mace, sword, shotgun, or nuke any day. Oh,
and business cards for economic clout. Scott and I sometimes have
business-card-handing-out duels. I'm still the fastest draw, but it's
getting closer. 😎
