Generally, I've always been of the mindset that any sort of weapon in an untrained hand is more dangerous to all involved. Even with a non-lethal alternative, you need 2 things: the will to use it, and the ability. If you are going to do so, make sure that you know how to work the device to the point where it takes almost no thought, and you have the ability to discern WHEN to use it.

Best defense is to be alert, and present a tough front. Most criminals when interviewed about how the select their targets respond that the victim looked easy. Head down, not very confident. This general theme applied to serial rapists and common muggers alike.
