Abstract
Effective self defense shouldn't put you nor others in danger the way bullets fired from guns do. By carrying one or more polybags of glass marbles in one's pockets, it is possible to throw such hard enough to injure an attacker by the force of the impact, plus deliver a red-pepper-laced, viscous detergent to their face, when the thin-wall polybag ruptures. The dozens of marbles and the slippery detergent that leak out, make it difficult for the attacker to stand up, thus limiting their ability to harm others.
Claims3
For highest utility, the present glass marble bags are proportioned to fit easily into a pocket, and to conform well to the thrower's hand so that such can be tossed at an attacker with a force high enough to cause the attacker pain, while at the same time, rupturing the thin-wall polybags and releasing dozens of not just difficult-to-stand-on marbles around the attacker's feet, but splashing-out the red-pepper-laced, viscous detergent into their eyes, nose and mouth, and on their skin, and also being slippery enough, by itself, to help assure that the attacker can't easily stand up, thus, essentially, incapacitating the attacker.
