They really need to unban pepper spray... Same goes for Norway.

Sucks for the girl, but legally there's really no other way unless she can be pardoned for some reason (e.g. because it's a minor crime). Legally, I imagine this isn't any different to carrying a gun and using it for defense. She may be charged using a different law, but that's it.

Now whether pepper sprays should be illegal... At first I'd imagine they shouldn't, but I'm not going to say more because I don't really know enough about them (and specifically how dangerous exactly they can be).

That sounds completely backwards, I mean the whole "you cannot defend yourself with any sort of object" kind of law. Then again the UK if someone tries to burgle you and you try killing or maiming them then they can sue you which again sounds backwards because you are the one at danger and being invaded.

It's literally illegal to defend yourself from rape.

She needs to be more progressive and allow the rape to happen.

So she should've abided by the law and let him rape her?

if he got away why did she tell anyone she used pepper spray? um duh

WTF?! Why should she be facing punishment for defending herself? I wonder if she was raped... would it have been different?

Hopefully, Americans will think about cases like this before they let the socialists take away their firearm rights. Here in Canada, you can go to jail for even being found possessing pepper spray, much less actually using it to defend yourself. You may think that you're creating a utopia by banning all these weapons and eliminating violence but you are actually just handcuffing your nation and paving the way for a much worse threat to just come strolling in as is happening in Europe right now.

That's beyond stupid.

It would be better if she was raped for the governement, right ?
Right.

RIP Europe
