      <![CDATA[Pepper spray, awesome... that's exactly what it should be used for. It's non lethal, causes no permanent injuries and works most of the time on wackos threatening to kill homos. I keep a police size can in my car and if that doesn't work I have a taser and if that doesn't work the collapsible baton. I don't want carry a gun so I figure the next best thing is to carry all the less lethal stuff the cops do in the car. I'm gay and if I was in that situation I would have sprayed him too. You go girl! I personally like Sabre Red or Counter Assault.

      <![CDATA[Grundstrom is white, I know him.  He's homeless and has addiction and mental health issues.  I'm not surprised he made the news for this, he also used to accuse me of being 'reverse-racist' if I sided with someone of color over him in disputes.  He is, however, a sad, fucked up man.  I'm not being an apologist, just really sad he still hasn't gotten the helps he needs and probably never will.
