Given that COVID19 is primarily contracted via respiratory/mucosal contact, would pepper spray to the face a disproportionate response? Maybe? If it a woman he hugged, I think most lay people would be okay with it. Of course this is Walmart.

Some huge dude trying to grab me? If I can't move out of the way first, he's getting hit. If I had OC spray in my hand, that would be even better, but probably would take too long to deploy.

Is there an alternate suggestion for those with limited shoulder function?

Is there an alternate suggestion for those with limited shoulder function?

A kick to the knuts is pretty effective and more compliant with social distancing.

[Clusterfrack]

Some options:

Knee to the groin.
Grab, twist, and yank the genitals.
Duck under and move to the back.

How about a hammer fist to the nose.

Knee. Appropriate soft and squishy target.

I am not the person to give advice when it comes to fighting as

A: My methods are not really approved by anybody.

and

B: I was always a knuckle dragging retard.

I went through a bunch of the usual training like lots of guys but really only two things stuck in my pea sized brain through the years.

Where the head goes, the body follows.

&

You can't fight if you can't breath.


Those two basic rules seemed to work well for me.


Not really politically correct these days though. Making people into asphalt angels now is sort of frowned on in this day of hurt feelings reports. :rolleyes:




EDIT to add: yeah, I would say with a tender shoulder, limited shoulder function, good knee in the groin, or something to allow you to break contact. Again, I am NOT the person to give advice. If it was my dad, or other person of advanced age who can legitimately claim that they could not mount a reasonable physical defense against a more capable person, I would tell them to stick his J frame into their gut and pull the trigger.

This.

No free hugs from folks I don't know thank you.

When I think if the damage someone could cause you doing that, Wuhan Virus is least of worries.
