Err, *tips in his point* First off. Bad Jemal *whaps* No correcting other players *laugh*
That said. He is right. Even in the states you need a permit to carry concealed, and to get that for anyone without legal reasons to do so is pretty difficult. Police in Canada are pretty proactive about sweeping up anyone on the streets after 3:00am. Sometimes I think they do it for fun.
That said, you can carry concealed illegally. City isn't really that dangerous that it would be necessary but if you've moved recently you might not know that.
And for what it matters, Jemal is also correct on the second bit. Self-Defence is only a viable legal option if you use minimum force. Essentially if someone threatens you with their fists, unless they signifigantly outweigh you or are more capable, using a weapon is not self-defence.
Likewise, shooting someone who is trying to rob you with a knife is oddly enough not self-defence unless you were in immediate life threatening danger (IE. He was trying actively to stab you.)
Really backwards laws sometimes. And a reminder, pick a side of the city already, yeeeesh!
