Only On The Walters Post

These are my own thoughts from what I’ve seen and lived through. I’m sharing them to spark some thinking and honest conversation, not because I have all the answers.

You know, Canada has always been known as a peaceful and law-abiding nation, but lately, there’s growing concern about our ability to protect ourselves in dangerous situations. While laws are meant to maintain order and safety, they sometimes leave law-abiding citizens vulnerable.

Lets say, if someone breaks into your home and threatens your loved ones, your options are limited. Using a legally owned firearm in self-defense could lead to criminal charges and even carrying non-lethal protection, like pepper spray, is against the law. Meanwhile, criminals, who don’t follow the rules, seem to have the upper hand.

The question is: Shouldn’t responsible citizens have the right to reasonable self-defense? We’re not talking about reckless violence, just the ability to protect ourselves without fear of legal consequences.

It’s time for an open discussion about self-defense laws in Canada, as the balance between safety and personal rights needs careful consideration, and we should all have a say in shaping a system that protects both public order and individual security.

I personally think that Canadians Should have more legal options for self-defense?
