Does anyone know of company that sells or some way to mount 6 D-Cell maglite on a bike with a
quick release?
I live in Los ANgeles, and over the last few months I've havd increased issues with "wilding"
attacks (assaults and attempted assaults from young males looking for racial and social
economic revenge).
Because of California's pro-criminal legal system, carrying a gun or knife would be a violation of
the attackers civil rights if I used it, but a flashlight on a bike at night doesn't automatically
equal carrying a weapon with the intent to use it for self defense.
Yes I realize it is a legally grey, but with a 10-30 minute police reponse time on a good day, an
improvised weapon is better then having cinder blocks dropped on ones head for half an hour until
the police arrive.
Changing paths and routes isn't much of an option because the attackers go into the "good
neighborhood" to look for people to attack, and they will attack people even in broad daylight and
on well traveled streets. (last attack was 4 blocks from a police station).
