Editing Mace (section)

==Modern "Mace"==
In terms of spelling, pronunciation, and being a weapon, they are the same as what the article has gone over thus far. That is pretty much where the similarities end. "Mace" is a non-lethal chemical weapon that is applied to an opponent's face like spray paint, causing severe eye irritation that temporarily causes blindness. Like the products Kleenex and Band-Aid, Mace (originally "Chemical Mace") has fallen victim to what is known as "generic trademark". While the origin of the modern usage of Mace was tear gas, it is nowadays more associated with pepper spray.
