18yr old daughter is starting college and needs a self defense weapon. Guns on campus are out so what is the best self defense weapon?

A gun

A bayonet at the base of the neck seems to work wonders...

That last hit to the base of the skull and his legs went dead. Then he unceremoniously dumped him on the floor like trash.

Umbrellas are very effective as long as she remembers to bring them along

In addition to all above, never accept an open container or mixed drink from anyone. Never let your own drink out of sight. If you do get a fresh one. Too easy to spike a drink. Most of all... Trust No one. Sad but true.

Black jack can put a real hurting on his head and nads

Taser makes a small concealable device called The Pulse that works every bit as good as the one police carry, and instead of a 5 second ride, the dirtbag gets a 30 second ride.

This. Get the gel kind….it’s easier to aim and it won’t blow back into her eyes.

I’ve seen several people simply wipe the gel from their eyes and continue to fight.

Knife / mace / self defense classes.

Flapjack and a good swift kick in the nuts really works wonders on putting some asshole on their knees.
Good heavy duty police grade mace
A good strong taser
