    Where I live, a full mask -- or merely fur -- sporran worn in public might get the wearer lynched. . .

    I have a full mask silver fox by Craigie and a beaver fur Glengyle from Ferguson Britt. I never wear the former and VERY rarely wear the latter as I don't want to find myself having to injure someone.

    At least with the sporran the cowards have to come from the front.
    A little pepper spray or mace carried on the belt should do fine.
    You are repelling a physical assault on your person.
    You can't really go Bruce Lee on em with your training.... In SF!
    It's odd that the city were "anything goes" allows this behavior to exist.

    Maybe carry handcuffs in that sporran and cuff em to a handy pole till the police arrive. They ain't going put up much of a fight with a face full of spray and they won't get away. Then charge them with assault and property damage to pay for your time and replacement heirloom sporran if it gets damaged. Of course it is still SF - don't know how it would turn out.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
