self defense weapons for sale
Any non-lethal Self Defense weapons I can get that won’t get me in trouble with the police?

I originally wanted to buy the Avurt IM-5 PAVA launcher, but no longer for sale. It fired little balls of mace and looked NOTHING like a gun which I thought was great cuz i wouldnt get stopped by police and have them thinking im a bad guy.

Mind you, I need something cuz I got mugged by 8 ppl a couple months ago. Dont tell me self defense cuz im not Steven Segal who can seemlessly take on more than 3 ppl. I’m not all for knives and tasers and such cuz they require you to be close to the subject.

I need something that can fire from a distance, looks nothing like a gun (and by that I mean it doesnt have a trigger finger or anything that looks like a clip chamber)… UNLESS is there a way I can have any of those gun-looking or toy gun-looking non lethal weapons WITHOUT getting in trouble with the cops?
Mind you, I live in NYC.

Pepper Spray it ya best shot….

It was a one-way ticket out of his self-imposed isolation and into the courtroom on the right side of justice. It was a favor for his old friend Judge Horace Woolner. It was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to serve as special prosecutor in a case against a man sworn to uphold the law, Marshall Goodwin, the chief deputy district attorney accused of having his former wife murdered. It was an opportunity Joseph Antonelli couldn’t walk away from. But Antonelli is walking into more than he bargained for. The Goodwin case renews his appetite for the practice of law, and although Antonelli is determined to remain on the side of justice, there are many shades between right and wrong. And Antonelli may be over his head when Russell Gray, an urbane, worldly, and wealthy man from a prominent Portland family, is found murdered in his living room. Horace Woolner’s wife stands accused of the crime. With justice and love on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher. In this stunning look at our legal system and our hearts, D. W. Buffa delivers on the promise of The Defense and takes us into the dark recesses of our courtrooms and our souls, where there are no easy answers.

Charles Nelson was revered for his "do-whatever-it-takes" school of self-defense. Many well-known exponents of the fighting arts – Carl Cestari, Bob Kasper and Kelly McCann – learned from Nelson at his school in New York, and thousands more have learned from his famous Red and Gray Manuals. The last of Nelson’s manuals, Self-Defense by Charles C. Nelson, is less well known but still quintessential Nelson in its sensible, hands-on approach to self-defense. Nelson’s genius was this: he spent a lifetime studying the way predators attack and then simplifying what he had learned into a system of uncomplicated principles and techniques that work for everyone. The exclusive new foreword by Paul Gerasimczyk, a long-time student at Nelson’s school who worked on both the Red and Gray Manuals, traces Nelson’s role as a self-defense icon – from his days first learning and then teaching hand-to-hand combat in the Marine Corps to his pioneering role as a civilian self-defense instructor. Now a whole new generation can learn about Nelson’s self-defense program from this little booklet, which few people even knew existed.

In Defense of Self: How the Immune System Really Works


In Defense of Self: How the Immune System Really Works


$21.94


We live in a sea of seething microbial predators, an infinity of invisible and invasive microorganisms capable of setting up shop inside us and sending us to an early grave. The only thing keeping them out? The immune system. William Clark’s In Defense of Self offers a refreshingly accessible tour of the immune system, putting in layman’s terms essential information that has been for too long the exclusive province of trained specialists. Clark explains how the immune system works by using powerful genetic, chemical, and cellular weapons to protect us from the vast majority of disease-causing microbes-bacteria, viruses, molds, and parasites. Only those microbes our bodies need to help us digest food and process vitamins are admitted. But this same system can endanger us by rejecting potentially life-saving organ transplants, or by overreacting and turning too much force against foreign invaders, causing serious–occasionally lethal–collateral damage to our tissues and resulting in autoimmune disease. In Defense of Self covers everything from how antibodies work and the strategies the body uses to distinguish self from not self to the nature of immunological memory, the latest approaches to vaccination, and how the immune system will react should we ever be subjected to a bioterrorist attack. Clark also offers important insights on the vital role that the immune system plays in cancer, AIDS, autoimmunity, rheumatoid arthritis, allergies and asthma, and other diseases. Of special interest to all those suffering from diseases related to the immune system, as well as their families, In Defense of Self lucidly explains a system none of us could live without.

Fatal Choice: Nuclear Weapons and the Illusion of Missile Defense


Fatal Choice: Nuclear Weapons and the Illusion of Missile Defense


$3.95


We continue to face a choice with respect to nuclear weapons – either to move safely towards their elimination or to remain their victim. A forty-year effort to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons is breaking down, and the likely acquisition of these weapons by terrorist groups is growing. In "Fatal Choice," Richard Butler, a well-known and respected voice on the subject of nuclear weapons, argues that we are poised on the verge of a second and much more threatening nuclear arms race than the one experienced throughout the Cold War. This threat is clearly reflected in nuclear weapons development by India, Pakistan, Iraq, and North Korea. The revival by the Bush administration of missile defense will not deal with the problem but worsen it. Butler outlines the steps that can be taken to give effect to the right choice on nuclear weapons.

"My personal feeling is that citizens of the democratic societies should undertake a course of intellectual self-defense to protect themselves from manipulation and control, and to lay the basis for more meaningful democracy."-Noam Chomsky "Exercising intellectual self-defense is an act of citizenship. It is what has motivated me to write this little book, which offers exactly this: an introduction to critical thinking."-Normand Baillargeon What is the relationship between democracy and critical thinking? What must a citizen in a democracy know to make the word democracy meaningful? In A Short Course in Intellectual Self-Defense, radical pedagogue Normand Baillargeon trains readers to think, deconstruct, and ask the necessary questions to protect themselves from the manipulations of government, "authorities," and other elites. Whether the issue be the call to what we’re told will be a bloodless war, the "debate" around Intelligent Design, understanding a government military expenditure, or simply reading the news, Baillargeon teaches readers to evaluate information and sort fact from official and media spin. In the spirit of advocates of critical thinking from every age, and including the famed late scientist Carl Sagan’s "Baloney Detection Kit" and George Orwell’s views on the political uses and abuses of language, this vivid, accessible primer empowers readers to take their education as citizens into their own hands. Normand Baillargeon is a professor of education fundamentals at the University of QuA(c)bec in Montreal, where he teaches on the history of pedagogy and the philosophy of education.

Every thirty-seven seconds someone in this country is the victim of a serious physical attack. Do you know how to defend yourself? Would you know how to neutralize your opponent to give you time to escape? The Apprentice Warrior System is a self-defense system not intended for the hard-core martial arts practitioner but for the average person who does not want to be caught off-guard in a dangerous situation. Created by the renowned Grandmaster Adrian Roman (10th degree black belt), the Apprentice Warrior System provide practitioners with a strong self-defense foundation. Specifically designed for beginners, it provides illustrated techniques that are simple to follow and easy to learn. What is the Apprentice Warrior System?

The Apprentice Warrior System is a straightforward self-defense system for beginners. The system was created to be simple and easy to learn. The system provides a combination of self-defense techniques learned from years of experience. The focus of these techniques is for an apprentice; a learner or novice. There are no forms or katas to memorize or practice for the Apprentice Warrior System, just plain and simple techniques. The Apprentice Warrior System is not intended for the hard core martial artist that already has years of experience. However, the follow-on system to the Apprentice Warrior, FalammichiTM, is an advanced self-defense/martial arts system that is right for everyone. The Apprentice Warrior System is a self-defense system that draws upon the Movements of Life; what is natural. For the purpose of training, the Apprentice Warrior System provides specific techniques to be practiced. However, these techniques are only repetition exercises to stimulate mind and muscle memory, and to help the student develop an analytical thought process, giving the student a foundation of their own to build upon.
