The Party of the Danes has launched an “asylum spray” for women who want to protect themselves against refugees.

The asylum spray, which is simply relabeled hairspray since pepper spray is illegal, is meant for women who need to protect themselves from getting raped. The Party of the Danes posted up at a square Saturday in the town of Haderslev to hand out the cans, but most locals declined the offer.

“I think it’s sick,” Helle Byg said when she was offered a can, according to TV Syd. “I’m so angry. I can’t find words for how angry I am.”

A total of 137 women grabbed a can, and some of them were happy with the initiative.

“It’s great. It matches bloody well with my attitudes and opinions,” Diana Nielsen told TV Syd. “It is after all them [refugees] who we are protecting ourselves against at the moment.”

The Party of the Danes is a nationalist party that hopes to enter the parliament after the next election. The leading parties in Denmark demand legal action against the people who handed out the cans, but the Party of the Danes insists it’s not out to provoke people.

“I don’t think it’s provocative,” Chairman Daniel Carlsen told TV Syd. “We go in to tackle a real problem in a society where many people feel unsafe. In part because there are a lot of migrants, but also because you don’t have the opportunity to protect yourself.”

More cans will be handed out later this week.
