If you have a normal chair, those made of wood with a back support, how would you use it to defend yourself?

Has anyone gotten beaten by a group before ?

Hi this thought came to me today and I’m just wondering seeing how life is tough and gangs are still up. I never have been beaten before and mostly stayed in the “ normal “ part of the life I know a few that talked about their experiences and I myself only had few altercations where that adrenaline came but it was ended fast without much real kicking or punching. But I am still that naive or how do you call never been through a fight or beat down. And I’m just don’t know what should I do if it ever happens, going into the inner city where both normal people and small gang people and big gang people hang I keep hearing stories in news and from people in my course who live in those ghetto areas about what they seen and how normal it is they even know who killed who and who killed Someone’s that police haven’t caught etc. I just wanted to ask how do people deal with being assaulted by a group or beaten up , because I would water likely go in a depression or struggle hard and jsut do police report and nothing happens , or maybe be tired of life trigger point and try find some of them and hurt them back possibly with knife in anger if the feeling of revenge gets over me. I find it hard to imagine and the anger of wanting to get back at them. But I wanted to ask from those of you who are older and maybe lived double the time and have gathered that life experience

HELP! I accidentally sprayed mace in my bedroom.

Sorry if I’m posting this to the wrong subreddit I’m kinda panicking.

Backstory: I was cleaning my bedroom today and went to return a can of mace to my family kitchen counter when I pressed down on the spray not realizing the safety was off (maybe for a max of 3 seconds). I stayed in the room long enough to put a fan in before spending the next 20 minutes flushing out my nose with saline and half n half (it was all I had) since it was mostly all inhaled and crying while my father laughed at me over the phone because it’s such a dumb situation. Anyways as I was walking to the bathroom I got the can out and put it on the counter and now it got moved to the table (I think my mom moved it, how screwed am I?). Eventually I went back after about 3 hours and took my fan out thinking it was okay before leaving to study. Then I went back to try and sleep (my bed is in front of my window where my fan was with my camera bag, clean cloth on it) but tested my sheets before laying down and I immediately started feeling the burn again. So now after washing the contaminated area I’m sleeping in my family room and I don’t know what to do. Help!

Questions:

- How do I re-clean my room, bedsheets, clothes, backpack, desk, and school supplies?

- And how long do I have to wait until I can be in my bedroom again?

- How long can mace stay on objects?

- How screwed am I?

An anti-dog spray that doesn't harm dogs?

Hello!

Could you recommend me a spray that makes stray dogs retreat, without harming them too much? I live in Romania, so, if someone could recommend local brands, all the better, if not, I could also buy from outside the country.

Pepper spray that will NOT FALL OFF from keys?

I’ve had two pepper sprays given to me by a friend (no idea what brand) and they’ve both fallen off my keychain (one had just the pepper pray itself fall out of the container, the other just unclipped from another plastic part it had)

Do you have any recs for any that will actually stay on my car keys??
