Well, obviously safety is a concern for some... so how do you stay safe? Obvioulsy, being smart is key... but what do you guys think about personal defence?

I know of a few different items (retractable batons, knives, mace, pepper spray, other misc. weaponry) that would prove useful if you found yourself in a bad spot. It may seem extreme, but sometimes, like in Barcelona, I would think you'd rather be safe than sorry. Im not the type to have a confrontation, but as Cypress Hill has said in the past, "When the shit goes down, you better be ready."... (humm, I think that's gonna go in my sig.)

So, anyone carry any of this stuff readily? Any problem travelling with it? Legality of having anything from a Leatherman or Swiss Army knife on you to having a mini-blade on you? Pepper Spray? Mace? Guns? Cannons? Rocket Launchers? Anyone?
