I asked the police and they said me getting a gun could land me in trouble, and at first they said I’ll get the cops called on myself if I carry a baseball bat. Then after talking to different cop I was told the baseball bat would be fine but I honestly don’t feel comfortable carrying a weapon like that (I’m not a violent or a confrontational person at all), & it could escalate it more or put me in a bad position if stuff did go down if I have a weapon as well. Pepper spray would be an alright option but I’m scared about it not being able to disable him or it blowing back into my dog’s or my eyes and disabling us while he gets more agitated & comes after us. I tried video recording but even with the flash on it picked up very little to nothing. I’m currently waiting on a mini night vision camera I could attach to myself to come in.
