Bear mace must hurt sooooo ****ing bad! Pepper spray hurts bad enough so I can't imagine something designed to stop a bear.some people ask "why bear mace?" what they should be asking is, "why NOT bear mace?" We're talking about a substance designed to send a clear message of "fvck off" to half ton murder machine that thinks you're on the menu.
And yes, I personally know how much pepper spray hurts.
