The cops here as well tell you not to resist.

I think he was wrong to use pepper spray. Shoulda had a shotgun.

Great video anyway. Given that he only had pepper spray, he should at least have shoved the can where it don't shine.

I just imagined him making the same closed fist pounding motions on the can.

Your proof of a "nannified" state is 4%?

No. But I am in favor of defending my property. Try breaking into my home in an attempt to rob me, or harm my family, and see what happens.

Too bad there arent more criminals that get the tables turned on them. If you do the crime you should be able to deal with whatever punishment is received. Not such a tough guy now.

Most Canadians are nowhere near as liberal as we assume them to be. If they were as far left as claimed they would be the Republic of Canukistan instead of the Realm of Canada ... and there is presently little to no support for a republic except among the Quebecker frog wannabes.

No kidding.

The little punk robber should be counting his blessings that what the owner grabbed was bear spray and not a shotgun.

The wife appeared to weigh all of maybe 90lbs, but she got right in and helped out.

Of course all businesses and banks and law enforcement will advise you not to fight back and hand over the cash, but the store owner had a nano second to make a decision when the robber started over that counter - and the owner made the decision to defend himself. Good on him !
