On Thursday, The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article that illustrates the necessity of being prepared to defend yourself.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The debate about gun control takes up so much bandwidth that we forget the Second Amendment isn\u2019t just about owning and carrying guns \u2013 it\u2019s about \u201cthe right to keep and bear arms\u201d \u2013 and one carjacker found that out the hard way.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Sunday incident occurred when a teenager tried to force an older Lyft driver to give up her car at knifepoint, WJLA, a Washington, D.C., TV Station, reported<\/a>. However, the driver feigned compliance, but instead of handing over her key, she retrieved a can of pepper spray given to her by her father and sprayed the carjacker in the face. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI reach over and I grab the bear spray and I sprayed him and I took out the knife and I started juking with the knife, then I opened the door and I fell out,\u201d the driver, identified as \u201cAngie,\u201d said in an interview<\/a> that aired Monday evening. \u201cHe grabbed the knife and then I sprayed him again. He ran and he came back again and he reached in the car to take my phone.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen he went to take my phone, I put my body on top of him and we start to fight,\u201d Angie continued. \u201cI saw him drop the knife. I started punching him in his leg. He somehow pushed over me and he got up and he ran away.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

A neighbor witnessed the incident and called 911, WJLA reported. The carjacker was later taken into custody, still suffering from the effects of the bear spray.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank God that the Lyft driver had the can of pepper spray. Hopefully the teenager will be charged with a crime and tried as an adult.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
