I suppose Canada is in a similar situation as Australia.
Guns aren't that big a deal up here.
Knives happen to be the weapon of choice for most robberies.
Give me a pair of Sinawali sticks or broom handles to handle that eventuality, thank you very much.
A sharp smack on the knuckles or wrist is about all it takes to make a thug change his mind.
And there's nothing illegal about having a pair of wooden sticks with you - nunchucks, yes.
I read about a guy that tried to fend off a robber with a pair of nunchucks. He got the crap beaten out of him, his wallet and car stolen - and was charged by the cops for possessing an illegal weapon. Talk about having a bad day! :RpS_cursing:
