Yeah, gays can be crooks and murderers. However, they rarely rape women, which is what the woman said she was afraid of. Besides, the guy in question has a good job, so no reason to mug someone, and is one of the least violent people I know.
And how the hell was he lucky?! He got peppersprayed for doing nothing else than being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Let's also not forget that the area for peper spray is 3 to 6 feet.

Just because you've never been peppersprayed doesn't mean it won't happen to others, or could not happen to you in the future. Sure, chances may be small, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
By your logic, a woman who wears skimpy clothing and spends lots of time in dark alleys, but hasn't been raped yet, would be "proof" that there is no danger in things like that.
As for the area of effect of pepper spray... a typical sidewalk is about 6 feet wide, so when walking past someone, I'd reckon you'd come well within range.
