Guerin was charged with criminal negligence, but less than a year later, a jury let the shopkeeper walk free.

He walked away

so...

Glock 17 is banned for Canadians because the barrel being too short. Canada's shooting market is tiny compared to the U.S., but it's one of Glock's most-consistent countries for sales with 4,000 to 5,000 guns sold each year on average.

even that was allwoed

it is dumb

did you see the conclusion tho?

Most Canadian gun laws are.

Nevertheless, on its own, a criminal record is no barrier to defending one’s home, said Steven Penney, a law professor at the University of Alberta.

this is old, it should have had an ending by now

Murder charge dropped against Gilbert Budgell

The murder charge should never have been brought.

the charges were dropped a year later tho

I'm saying for the murder charge to be brought, in self defense was insane.

again, reasonable force for the type of situation you are in
