Ah yes, I keep forgetting that you are a Cannuk. My bad.

Can you get a CCW in your own country? I would not imagine that NHs CCW would do anything for you while in Canada.

True, I would probably intervene in any case. Worry about nationality later, I doubt it will be a problem. But the legalities are interesting nonetheless.
I talked to a few of my LEO buddies and got a different answer every time. It is a tricky subject. But one thing they all agreed on is this. If you see someone hurting someone, you can try to stop it. But you must do so with the least amount of force possible.

You could get boned while trying to help someone out. One of the examples they gave me is this.

You are walking down the street, see someone pointing a gun at someone else. You draw on him and shoot him.

The guy with a gun was an off duty cop and was trying to arrest someone. You just killed a cop and are now in jail.

So you have to be very careful.

Notice how the farther down the list you go, the smaller their balls get.
