PEPPER SPRAY.

Pepper spray is convenient, effective, and easy to keep hidden until you need it.

Pepper spray is legal in all 50 states, but there may be restrictions on how and where you can carry it. Check your local laws before purchasing or carrying pepper spray.

Pepper spray works by releasing Oleoresin Capsicum (OC), which causes an attacker's eye veins and mucous membranes to swell, causing intense discomfort and immobility. The effects can last for up to an hour which gives you plenty of time to make it to a safer place.
