Having been there many, many times, I'd have never guessed that Paris Texas is more "civilized" than Paris France. Based on your post, I'd have been wrong!israel67 wrote:You're lucky. I just checked and here in France, pepper spray is a 'Category Six Weapon', and therefore prohibited.
What a pathetic country this is. Get me out o' here ... please !!
If Texas ever outlawed pepper spray, they'd have to close 90% of the Mexican restaurants in the state. Either that or people would resort to carrying enchiladas just to have a reasonable substitute. I say 90% because some of the Mexican food facilities still think serving Santa Fe or California style mush is tasteful and they have the nerve to call it Mexican food.
Somehow I'm not surprised that the French have outlawed pepper spray but I have to wonder what good it has done based on the recent riots in that part of the world. Maybe glass bottles are next. After all, they can make a pretty efficient weapon either whole, broken, or used as a container for flammable liquids.
No thanks! I think I'll stay here and avoid anything associated with France.
