Hungary:Ticket
inspectors should be armed to the teeth
Ticket inspectors, curiously
referred to as “controllers” in Hungary,
are demanding self-defense weapons such as pepper spray due to the rise in
atrocities committed during their controlling, says Metro Union leader Attila
Gulyas, according to Blikk.
As many as 60 attacks have occurred
just this year, including the one this Wednesday, when a female controller was
pushed to the ground causing serious injuries. Despite this the BKK (Budapest
Transport Centre) believes arming controllers would fail to solve the issue.
What both sides failed to realize
however, is that it is already completely legal to carry several types of
self-defense tools, even for ordinary citizens, including tear gas sprays and
gas/alarm guns with a carry license (easily obtainable if one is law-abiding).
