Background
For many years the subject of what a member of the public whether at home or elsewhere can do to defend themselves or loved ones has left people wondering what they can & can’t do.
Therefore I request that Parliament discuss this Non lethal method of self defence and legislate it’s use without fear of prosecution when used in defence.
