Real world defense and tactics

[comp45acp]

I hope that the Best Defense will take into consideration that states like mine ( Wisconsin) don't allow alot of defensive measure that are allowed in other states. I was lucky to have been raised with a LEO and lucky enough to have worked for the MPD in civilian support capacity. So I saw more of the real world than anyone I know. The first Best Defense series dealt with alot of things you can do for securing your home. But what do you do outside of your home if you live in my state or say Ill. Up until a few year ago pepper spray was not allowed. CCW is not allowed. Mace I believe is still not allowed. Although I don't know why anyone would use it. Tazers are not. Certain blade sizes are not allowed. My point is any info is always helpful. But you guys are way up the ladder of training and I hope that you don't lose sight of the average gal/guys. We operate day to day on the lower part of that ladder and as I found out with my friends and family. They give me blank stare when I tell them how to be proactive with thier personal defense. Scares me to think that they need to learn a lesson the hard way. Which will be the dead way if you ask me.

Wisconsin-I suppose you do know that open carry is legal in Wisconsin but suppressed in many areas by police harassment with "Disorderly Conduct" charges (no convictions though).  There is a group working to fix that, we are active and making progress.  Please visit our website-lots of information available  http://www.wisconsinpatriots.com
