Dude, it's an umbrella. What could be more legit?

Peole don't have to know it's damn near indestrctible until you're beating the crap out of them with it.

Agreed. I meant a scam, like one badass prototype for videos and demos then a POS sent to customers.

On a side note - when I was in the PI in the Navy, we used to buy umbrellas for $3 on our way out into the barrio and would sharpen the end on the sidewalk. It was a great disposable club, I always came home without mine somehow.

I dunno...they got the Dog Brothers endorsement, and i don't think they'd put their name on something that couldn't be used to hit stuff....like, a lot. and hard.

THough I am still somewhat skeptical, they say that if it gets damaged from average wear and tear (no throwing it under trains or bulldozers it says) they'll fix, or even replace it if necessary.

FOr me, cleaving through the watermelon was the clincher. I want one.

Frankly, I'd just as soon take my ASP (tm) off my belt.

Here's my lukewarm opinion on your less-lethal option.

In no way, shape, or form is pepper spray gonna be considered lethal force (as far as weapons go, that's about as P.C. as you're gonna get.)

Furthermore, the kind of strikes one is supposed to use with a baton is going to be just as effective as pepper spray. In terms of really psyched-up a-holes, said effect can be rather disappointing. Read: pain compliance. However, "wrong" strikes with a baton could be considered lethal, or BE lethal, when you don't intend it to be.

In for a penny, in for a pound. Get yourself a gat (always considered lethal, so everyone is gonna be on the same page when you pull it) and get good with teh grapple. Hopefully you know how solid a good teh grapple is when it comes to this kind of stuff.

Or....

2nd choice, spray de pepper.

I'd quote secific sections, but it really needs to be taken in context.

Basically, if it makes a canadian say 'ow' it's prohibited.
Doesn't matter if the guy is robbing you.

Well I guess if you're canadian at least your government has rendered you immune to groin strikes...

<RANT> I agree with the legislation. Why would I want a bunch of paranoid assholes legally walking around with this ****? Once I made it out of highschool alive, I found out that in the real world, you make the decision as to how whether or not you will be in one of those situations. The only adults I've ever known to get a beat down in the streets were all asking for it. I've lived in the worst parts of town with a potentially dangerous skin tone to have and I don't have problems.Needing to carry a weapon in college? What college are you going to? Who do you expect to meet? If you feel like a god with a weapon, don't walk in my path. Prison isn't heavan. </RANT>

Canadians are pretty stupid. lol. They fart on eachothers heads. (its true, watch south park)
