Pepper spray does not go away after "a few seconds", that would be immensely ignorant to assume. You are aware that it has the potential to blind people, right? It's not just something they shrug off, they literally lie on the floor screaming in pain, scratching their eyes out. And if they are just enraged, they can hardly see enough to know where you are.
"Yet most of them just switch over to long bladed knives which are also illegal. So now the law-abiding populace is weakened to having no tools while the ones which are illegally using tools become more destructive."
Pepper spray, as Faustie said.
"And as any other tool they are easy to produce and manufacture. I still don't understand your fear for firearms."
Missing the point, he said this tool's sole purpose is to kill, which is definitely something to fear, in my opinion.
"Entertainment? Understanding the mechanics of a firearm? Waging Guerilla Warfare and causing the government the lose the hearts and minds of the people? "
You do know the chances of US going totalitarian is incredibly small, right? Not because of the "Oh my gawd some people have guns", because despite what you think, I doubt the US government would give more than 2 shits, about what a redneck has in his cupboard. There are measures taken into place, that make sure no person can have ultimate power, it was an issue in 1776, it isn't an issue anymore. It's hardly an excuse.
