Or burn like 10 bags in a row, like my little brother and 2nd cousin did when my parents were vacationing... They kept putting the bag after bag upside down, so it couldn't expand, and never read the instructions. I was grounded, and missed out on the fun.

Wow. Even my 4yo knows how the bag needs to be oriented.

Well, that same younger brother is now married with 4 children, and is very anti-vac, saying it has cancer in it. Also, he thinks it is legal to shoot someone in self defense, which is illegal in Canada. You can't fix stupid sometimes.

Well, I’m not going to argue with anything except one thing, from talking to Canadians, my understanding is that while you don’t have a stand your ground or castle doctrine/law, it’s not illegal either. It seems to be very much case dependent and as a Canadian you’re expected to respond with “reasonable and proportional” force, which, is very subjective I guess? Idk, if you’re going to try to do it in Canada, you better be in your closet and the other person better be coming with a gun.
