Despite what the media would tell you, crime in Canada is decreasing. Gun violence isn't running rampant why do you think the laws don't work? Also the bold part doesn't make sense. Criminals can't legally weapons either.

If someone broke into my house, I pull a weapon, and cause harm or even death...I can be charged. I was told that if this was to happen, that the assailant has to be dispatched permanently. Even that can bring charges, with some difficulty though as there is no counter story.

You are stretching that. Bent Wookie covered it.

I'm a guy, so it's way different. If you want trouble (I live downtown, west side), you'll find it. As for females, get someone to walk with you. Otherwise get some bear spray or a knife if your comfortable with it's use. As for anecdotal evidence, does it matter? If it was you involved in a situation, your tune would change awful fast.

Bringing emotion into these issues doesn't help anything. There is a reason our justice system doesn't run on emotion. And no my tune wouldn't change I would never want to carry a weapon around.
