You could check out the pocket whips, a braided cable attached to a handle. Very painful but near zero risk you could ever kill someone with it. I just happen to have some for sale BTW!

I’ve looked at similar items, sounds like the Stinger tactical whip. Can I carry one of those and use it the same or better than a baton around here?

If yes to the above then consider me interested if your offer still stands.

Deadly Weapons prohibited is the law that has sort of blanket coverage for lots of prohibited items but there is no mention of whips. Additionally a pocket whip really has no risk of creating death or even serious injury so it wouldn't fall under the definition of a deadly weapon. So yes, you could carry one around here. I highly doubt you could carry it on the plane though.

I do not see myself grabbing a self defense cane since I can walk just fine. I'm looking at something concealable for when the moment arises.

Walk fine as you wish, but you can walk fine and be armed unconcealed, even in the court house.  :thumbsup:

In the old days, snapping off a nearby automobile antennae was pretty quick and efficient.  :geekdanc:

I'm not concerned about carrying aboard the plane, this would be checked anyway. I'm thinking of anytime I'm outside the airport and the courthouse.

Nice design btw  :shaka:

this has to be at least 5 times he's announced he had you blocked, and i'd bet it's more than that...

it was a JOKE!

Whip?   "Swoosh!"   Get it?  The sound of the whip?

I expected EEF to miss the humor, but I figured Mr. Peanut Gallery with "heads", etc. would catch it.

Either you get it, or you don't.

If I have to explain a joke, it's not worth it.

i think you should be ok, it's not that bad here on oahu
but if you feel the need, a collapsible baton is considered non-lethal...

It has been several years now, but the door lock on my truck was screwdrivered in the court parking lot on Halekauwila or Auahi St while I was sitting on a jury. An old beater Datsun more worse.
Not 75 feet from the kiosk. Have long suspected the attendant was in on it.
There was stuff on the front seat. Just be careful

Not surprised,  considering how a guy was able to beat a woman to death on the steps of a police station.

Get those big old heavy maglite flashlights with the 4 D batteries. 

But the newer high lumen flashlights work better at flashing the eyes than the old bulb flashlights.
I think, therefore I am armed.

A stinger is a great weapon to carry into secured areas. All plastic and cannot be detected by a metal detector. If found you can say it is for acupressure therapy.
