If view of the fact that OC sprays' interference with the bad guy is both partial and very temporary, my answer to the above question would be: "At least 50 yards and away and continuing to open the distance between us with enthusiasm."seamusTX wrote:I should have said this earlier, though the OP didn't ask: Pepper spray disables an assailant for a minute at most, and possibly not at all. If the guy was angry before, he's going to be really angry afterward, and he knows what you've got now.
So where are you going to be when he recovers?
When the police use pepper spray, their goal is disabling the person long enough to put handcuffs on him. Non-LEO self-defense is quite different.
