- Really? Look up California's tear gas statute, which has the unusual effect
- of making certain items even more likely to be illegal than tear gas.
-
- Better check up on those research skills, Darr. I found it in less than
- fifteen minutes. The statute's been used to convict people selling
- capiscum, even though capiscum is a household substance with household
- uses not specifically prohibited by the statute. If you tried to peddle
- WD-40 for self-defense, they'd get you just as surely.

- You're quick to call names. Does your blatant mistake regarding California
- law make you a liar?

-
- I haven't corresponded with Andy, but I haven't needed to. It's not that
- hard to find the section towards the end of California's Penal Code regarding
- what is allowable for self-defense. I see that others on the net haven't
- had trouble finding it either.
-
- My attitude's the same as Andy's. I don't get paid to do your research for
- you, Darrell. If you're too lazy to do a "tear gas" and "self-defense"
- search on CA-ST, that's your problem.
