- For self defense purposes only
While many of the cities in Arizona are considered to be fairly safe, Phoenix is known to have a high rate of violent crime. Like other big cities, the crime rates for Phoenix are significantly higher than the national averages when counting assault, robbery, rape, and other types.
When it comes to personal safety, It is always important to protect yourself the best way that you can. Carrying pepper spray can be a great solution if you need protection. Pepper spray is easy to carry and easy to use, and very effective against any attacker. It will quickly incapacitate an aggressor, allowing you the precious moments you need to get to safety.
Self-defense laws for Arizona state that “a person is justified in threatening or using physical force against another when and to the extent a reasonable person would believe that physical force is immediately necessary against the other’s use of physical force.” This basically means that you are justified to use pepper spray or an electronic incapacitation device (e.g., a stun gun) to protect yourself if you feel that physical harm is imminent.
Make sure that you are taking proper precautions to protect yourself from becoming the victim of a violent crime. Being vigilant about your surroundings and avoiding potentially dangerous situations is important, but may not always be enough, since crime can happen anywhere. Carrying pepper spray or a stun gun can be a great solution.
