You have a right to defend yourself. They have zero right to leave a dangerous dog loose on their property. It's pretty open and shut.

I've been trying to find a sjambok for sale. Most of the ones I've seen are out of stock.
Wouldn't that qualify as a club? Can you legally carry one?
I specifically asked this question of my local chief of police and have an email from him that a sjambok is NOT a club and is not illegal to carry.
