It was the last day of class before spring break my senior year of college.
It was March 2020, and I didn’t know this would be the last time I would walk to science class. Once spring break came, so did the virus and classes would be online for the rest of the year. However, this wasn’t what made this day walking to class stick out in my mind. It was actually because, on this day walking to class, I was confronted by a man on my downtown commute and was scared for my life. I had driven my car to the science building, but before I could get out of my vehicle, a man was banging on my window and yelling at me. I don’t even remember what he was saying exactly – but I was scared. My car was locked, and I called campus security. Luckily for me, campus security had already seen the situation and told me they were already walking to my car. Phew!
Campus security escorted me to class, and I watched the man wander off. This was one of those moments where I felt ashamed of myself for not being more prepared. What if he had approached me when I wasn’t in my vehicle? It wasn’t like I carried pepper spray. I didn’t carry pepper spray because honestly, I’ve never understood where to find it. Is it something you need to buy in person? Can it be found online? I just wasn’t familiar with it, but I should’ve been.
Thankfully, SABRE offers a wide variety of pepper spray, pepper gel (great for indoor use!), practice spray, and more. AND! It’s all easily available online. I’m so thankful that I found this brand, because I now feel safer, and honestly….more empowered. Now, I want to buy pepper spray for all my friends and younger sisters! I can’t stress enough how this isn’t about fear…..it’s about confidence. Thank you, SABRE!
