Defending yourself and a civilian being able to carry a loaded weapon and deciding when he is in danger and is allowed to use it to take a life are very different things. Tasers, pepper spray, proper defense training...all work when it comes to self defense. |
The gangs in some of the bigger cities(even medium sized cities like San Bernardino) require the use of a gun as self defense. Its hard to compare Canada to the US, orthe US to any country for that matter. As this case shows we have some massive race problems still to this day. In big citties with gang problems pepper spray and tazers wont do anything. Nor would they help in home invasions, of which we dont suffer too many in the US. Its a different kind of outlook on life, but for the most part guns are not the problem, it the illegal drugs that fund massive gangs accross the country and globe, and the massive cities run by crap government that dont protect their people that are the casue of gun deaths and violence in the US. It doesn't hurt that we have an open border with a country that is basically in opoen revolt against in government and has drug cartels with military grade hardware that support their criminal neighbors up here.
