yes they are illegal Mexico along with mace and pepper spray. it is also illegal for you to fight back with your bear hands if you are attacked if you are a foreigner.

After all, those "Bear" hands have long, sharp claws that could be lethal.

I didn't believe it so I looked it up. The law has some stipulations:

It's only illegal if your attacker is a police officer OR if you put up a successful defense.:lol::lol:

Of course this law only applies to 'bear' hands. Guns and Knives are OK.;D

What valid information can you add.
I for one would like to know the whole story because I have never been one to turn the other cheek.

The best defense is a fast and furious offense.


Well, everybody uses pepper sprays around here, stun guns are illegal, if attacked you can defend yourself anyway you like, if your going to shoot someone, you better make sure they shot at you first or hurt you in a way that its obvious your life was in danger.

Adding fuel to the fire, I guess,

when we were burglarized a few years ago,

the invesitigating police officer said: 1) if the burglar is in your house, you can defend yourself as best you can; 2) if you shoot someone on your property, throw them into the ocean.

Hose A I got my info from My lawyer and the local police here in Mulege.

we had a incident a few years ago where a American tried to defend himself in a bar and he was deported. I did not think it was right at the time so I checked it out.
