If you don't want to be a Grammar Nazi... then don't. I typed that real and missed the two letters. My point was to be humorous and give the OP hope that there will be an answer which I, too, and awaiting.

We're all trying to be funny my friend (maybe unsuccessfully in my case, as usual). But since I strive for precise correctness, let me just point out that I didn't actually say I didn't want to be a grammar Nazi; I said I didn't want to look like one, which means I guess I wanted to be a stealth grammar Nazi. I might add that as much as I hate looking like one I sometimes have to weigh one thing against another, and end up looking like one anyway, because I hate letting a good typo go to waste.
Looks like we ended up getting a good answer to the original question in spite of everything; my thanks to Mr. SemperFiGuy, and thanks to those who answered my question of what a WAG is.

Hmm... able to do something because no law expressly allows or disallows the act or object.....
What's that called again?
Oh yeah ...LIBERTY!

OK..........
Here's what I all-too-often see on Cops TV Show:
LEOs pull up to Perp at curb. Start the usual yelling, "Get Down, Show Me Your Hands, Relax, Quit Resisting....Whatever."
Perp won't go along w/LEO's loudly barked commands. LEO pulls out pepper spray, gives Perp a Big Snootful.
Perp pays absolutely no attention whatever to the pepper spray/mace/or other form of oleum capsicum spray. Perp just keeps on doing his Perp thing. LEO sprays and sprays. OC spray has no apparent effect on Perp a-tall.
Then about a Whole Mob of LEOs jump the Perp, cuff him, read him his rights, yada, yada, yada. Perp now in custody, subdued. But not by the OC spray.
Am I sayin' that OC spray doesn't work?? Not at all.
Fer Sure, sometimes it does. But lotsa times, it just doesn't seem to have much effect on the Perp. Guess the Meth or Pot or Meanness in the Perp's system neutralizes the OC spray, whatever.
So don't be surprised if Your Perp just shakes his head, shrugs, and keeps on coming.
Better have a Plan B on deck, that's all.

I know OC may not work; however there are times I will and do enjoy drinking a beer. I those cases, I want _something_ as opposed to nothing. And in reality I carry pepper gel, not spray. Even if pain-wise they don't react, the gel will affect vision

You and I are entirely in sync on this point.
BTW--Even if OC doesn't work each, every, and all the time, I still don't want a big slug of it in the face. Or anywhere else.
