They did not make the law which disarms their people. That law was inherited from the British empire which, like all imperialist powers, derived benefits from their victim populaces being disarmed. There is no excuse for the practice continuing, particularly when tens of thousands of people are bitten by poisonous snakes annually, the majority in their sleep.
Within two years of the second ammendment being passed in India, major injuries and deaths from snake bites would be something you read about happening two or three times a year like it is here in the states.
The second ammendment is a law which enables and empowers people; the whole fricking world needs it.
