    I carry pepper spray -- 2 or 3 of the little 1 oz canisters that clip to my
    belt. Over the past week I have had two encounters with a pair of young pit
    bulls that apparently are running loose in the neighborhood where I run each
    morning, starting usually around 0530. I have had to shoot them twice with
    my pepper spray.

    I have reported the dogs to animal control.

    I've seen other runners with pepper spray in a Velcro grip -- the grip seems
    to have a holster that holds the pepper spray canister and a strap that
    wraps around the hand -- the pepper spray is always at the ready. Anyone
    have any experience with these?

    What pepper spray do you carry?

    Thanks.

    Really? And what "belt" is it you wear running? You are really an
    idiot, and a bad troll.

    Yes, but the one drawback is you have to practice your quick draw,
    like the old cowboys.

    I don't carry sprays. I favor other "force multipliers."
    When possible, go after the owner.

    Perhaps "belt" is not the correct term. I should have said "waistband of my
    shorts."

    I'll ignore the rest of your [censored] and add you to my killfile.

    Good idea. That's where he belongs.

    Hey Michael, all you have to do is take off your mask, and while they
    are gagging you can run away.

    Get a KelTec .380 and a ccw. Not much bigger than pepper spray and a
    more permanent solution.

    You call me a troll because I called you ugly.
