Umbrellas or Weapons?

I can definitely see why kids seem to use their umbrellas like weapons. They're long and thin...perfect for wacking and poking. Heck, they even sort of resemble a sword. Can you blame them? I read this cute article today about a Dad who took his young son to a baseball game and they were giving out umbrellas to the fans. Uh oh...a kid with an umbrella in a large crowd...dangerous!

Maybe the kids are onto something though....it turns out you CAN actually use your umbrella as a weapon if you wanted...for self defense! Check out this video (around the 1:00 mark) and these tips. They even make an umbrella for adults with a samurai sword handle.

Forget perfume, Britney! She should start a line of self-defense umbrellas instead. If you recall, Brit used her umbrella back in 2007 to attack an SUV with paparazzi in it (photo above).
