the link i posted is from ask the police and t he first words say The only fully legal self defence product at the moment is a rape alarm.

how is a rape alarm going to protect anyone the more people who support THE RIGHT for a person to defend there person with a weapon the better, criminals do not care about the law so these bans on weapons are just hurting law abiding citizens such as myself, i know the police are trying to ban everything that can be used as a weapon but that wont work, so in the polices mind we should ban cars because they kill people, we should ban glass because people get hit with bottles, we should ban bricks and stones, i mean seriously how dumb are the British police thinking these laws actually work, ofc i agree that people shouldn't be armed to the teeth with AK47'S and semi auto rifles but just having a rape alarm is useless, tazers should be legal and so should handguns as self defence and for home defence
