I second the above. Technically, you could get charged for carrying a folding knife without a CCW permit if you happen to use it for - or articulate it's use for self-defense.

Where does 'beat them with a baton' fit on your use of force spectrum?

Thanks for the replies guys looking for one for the daughter she has her CCW but has to leave it in the car, (can't carry while at work hospital) so she is gunless while walking from the parking structure to the hospital and back to her car. I got her pepperspray but looking at other options.

A few years ago when I was new to WI I started a thread in here about pepper sprays. The good stuff with OC in it is not allowed to be sold in the state but you can have it. Mine was all purchased out of state. I prefer the larger cans over the keychain sized stuff. No sooner did I give everyone
New ones and multiples for purses, vehicles and doorways, my Mom used hers on a dog. I think mace is about as low as I want to go. Yes we all carry knives too but that is because it is better than a bare fist. Batons are for cops and really require some training to use properly to disable someone quickly. Need more than mace, add a Second can and something pointed and sharp on the key chain. A loud ass whistle too. Crooks don't like noise |

I don't think there is anything establishing a definition yet, let alone case law.

I had my state assemblyman Kevin Peterson ask the DOJ for a definition of Billy club and the DOJ's response was any baton the police would use.
I also asked about getting it defined in the law and was told "that wont happen" |

I got her pepperspray but looking at other options. Her objective would probably be to get away from any attacker, not subdue a resisting suspect. As it's been said before, you need some training to be effective with an expandable baton, and it's effectiveness will be dictated by how hard you can swing it (I'm guessing she's of smaller stature). I would recommend against the baton and just go with the OC. Spray and escape, and it'll give her some delay time to get to her gun if the attacker is really determined. ETA: In which case, getting in close with a baton is probably a bad idea, the perp needs lead poisoning, not love taps. |
