A little advice. Don't do this!

First a prelude. A few years back, I was chased by a pack of dogs while walking a trail in a state park taking photos. Luckily they were far enough down the trail that I was able to reach my van and get inside before they started jumping on the van baring their teeth. So I went to our local buy anything store and got me a large can of tear gas, the strongest they had. I kept it with me any time I was on the trails after that. In the meantime, I kept it in my bedroom chest of which their are two large upper doors with two large shelves I keep all my sweaters, sweat shirts, and other clothes. I kept it there in case God forbid, something should occure here at home and I would need it fast. Well, I never thought about THIS happening. The canister leaked out completely overnight somehow last night. Now just walking past my chest will burn your eyes. Needless to say, it's being aired out and the clothes washed more than once. I hope we save the clothes! Anyways, wanted to pass this sad tale along to you incase you happen to have a tear gas canister somewhere in your home. Put it some place where a leak will not cause much of a problem.
