Who is Protecting You? "The Club" Pepper Spray Helps Protect Against Assaults and Personal Attacks

SHARON, Pa., Oct. 11, 2018  /PRNewswire/ -- Assaults, attacks, violence – all words that are heard too frequently in the news today. Victims vary in age, gender, orientation, race, geography – nobody and no place is foolproof safe. Who is protecting you?   Protection may include carrying a non-lethal device such as "The Club" Pepper Spray.

"The Club" Pepper Sprays are designed to be non-lethal, while being easily carried and easily used.  They can be used on a perpetrator with effects that can last up to 45 minutes.  When sprayed at a would-be assailant, "The Club" Pepper Spray causes skin and eye irritation by delivering 3,000,000 Scoville Heat Units.  That heat is designed to stop the would-be assailant long enough for the intended victim to get away.  Provided with a key chain ring, "The Club" Pepper Spray is handy and easy to use.

"We want to provide our customers, women and men alike, with options to carry non-lethal protection," said Jerry Trontel, Winner International's President.  "We all need to protect ourselves, and want to be certain we do what we can to protect our loved ones too.  That's why "The Club" carries pepper spray in our line. Sometimes the answer to 'Who is protecting you?' is: only you.  Pepper spray is designed to help you with that," added Trontel. The company also offers a personal alarm that can be hooked onto nearly anything; a backpack, a belt, or a purse. It sends a high frequency audible alarm when triggered by a cord pull, alerting others to the need for help.

The numbers are staggering.  According to RAINN, 1 in 6 American women has been the victim of rape or attempted rape, in her lifetime.  Over 570 people experience sexual violence daily – in this country.  The victim's age is typically 12-34 years old.  The disabled are twice as likely to be sexually assaulted than a person without a disability.  And it's not just limited to women – men face assaults as well. What percent of perpetrators of sexual violence will walk free? According to Huffington Post, 99%.  

Although personal attacks can happen anywhere, they are most often by someone the intended victim is familiar with.  They occur in home settings, in open public spaces, in enclosed spaces (think parking lots) and even school properties. Being aware of surroundings at all times, and traveling with a companion are good practices for everyone.
