yes, in an armed country, i'm glad he does.
but a country that does not permit those kinds of weapons - and indeed that actually does something when small children are killed at a kindergarten - does not have these sorts of problems.
pepper spray ought to be adequate for a concealed weapon in most circumstances.
but under the law as it stands, the case should not have been brought to trial.
the state should not be permitted to prosecute a person on an emotional basis when the law itself says jurors should discount emotion. they were asking the jury to act unlawfully. the state should never do that.
if they don't have the facts to support their case, there should be no trial.
this was politics masquerading as law.
it was also a tragedy that had nothing to do with the law.
