Should an intruder or burgler enter my house, In order to protect my family i would want to disable him as quickly as possible, The best means in my opinion of doing this is with the least amount of voilence is mace spray.

Where does the law stand on mace spray? is it legal to possess in your own home? Can you use it in self defense? also what strength is legal/illegal (there are versions more powerful than others)

On a politcal rant note. If we had a 2nd amendment like the United States there would hardly be any burglaries in this country. No one breaks into a house in Texas because they know they are going to get shot the minute they try it. You do that in England and you are facing life imprisonment,But thats fine because all the villians all have guns and we have the worst burglary rate in Europe.

You could go for something legally blinding like hair spray, deoderant or WD40..

Being in Texas, we still have plenty of home invasions, and we have lots of people shooting themselves and family both intentionally and accidentally.

No mace or pepper spray? That's damn silly if you can't have that.

Well ,just what is the law in my home? If I don't know ya , you're out !! If you made it into the house,,That's gonna be bad for you.. I will back into a corner and claim invasion of space ,,Shame on you!!! If me ,, or my family ,are under the threat of harm,,shame on you ... I'm sorry but that's the way it is in my house ... Very disciplined,, but ,, death before dishonor... Otherwise, what's mine is yours'...

It is an illegal weapon, illegal to own

You may only use reasonable force.
