I wonder why the murder rate in Pheonix is almost the same as Chicago? Must be the difference in gun laws.
I will always look at it from an
INDIVIDUAL PERSPECTIVE, to wit:
when a victim is violently beset with
the depredations of criminals or of animals,
he need not stop to consider
what is best for society.
Survival is
very INDIVIDUAL.
When a victim of crime is attacked by predators
he has a right to fight back, and to be as successful
as possible, regardless of how the predators
are armed or if thay r
UNARMED.
The victim can be killed by
UNARMED predators
or by those bearing sharp or blunt weapons.
We know that because it has already happened too many times.
There is only one way that a petite old lady
or a child can defend himself or herself from
violent predators: guns of adequate power
with competent ammuntion.
No citizen has the duty
to lay down and submit to murder, for the good of society.
I support
"equal protection of the laws" Parados.
