I'm not saying the gun didn't help her here, it sounds like it did, but what if the guy had taken the gun from her? Sounded like there was quite a struggle. And next time I guess the guy will go into a situation armed himself.

I think the US is pretty much unique in that it's fucked in terms of gun control. The country was formed, expanded and built at the barrel of a gun. Every solution to every problem in the US, or in US foreign policy, is guns. And if that doesn't work, more guns.

It's not a good situation, but it's never going to change.
fyi, there is a lot of hunting in canada..
