Replying to bigger cities

i live in the mountains, because i ski, and am travelling to new york with the school. People have said it is a bit dangerous, i was just looking out to get a few tippers on how to be safe? I was thinking either pepper spray or a extendable batonnette because me and a few pals who are all going have an army surplus store by are school and it is fun to go and look at their crazy gear, so i looked and thought it was crazy but i worled all summer so i have lots of money and was wondering if it might be smart to get those
