ASP batons

<< < (2/2)

depserv:
Carry a toolbox in your car with a framing hammer in it, among other tools of course.  Or a baseball bat, along with a baseball and glove.  I'd take either of those instead of an asp any day.

If you want nonlethal defense, pepper spray is probably as good as an asp, if not better. 

And the cardinal rules no matter what you carry: keep a low profile, don't act like a punk, don't create a disturbance, and be calm and respectful when you deal with other people, especially police.  And don't be afraid to walk away from a fight: we pay good money to have police take care of those things for us, so there's no reason to get your own hands dirty.  Unless you can't walk away.

As was pointed out above, if you use it as a weapon, the law will consider it a weapon.  If you mind your own business and don't cause a problem, you shouldn't have a problem.

Unless you run across a Barney Fife, in which case the asp might be a problem.  But a toolbox or sports equipment shouldn't be a problem even for Barney Fife, as long as you have a good reason for them to be there, and you follow the cardinal rules.
