Threats are real. Far too many will kill (or steal) to get what they want. But guns and wars tend to cause more problems than they solve.
Self-defense is a right that must have strict conditions and limits. The concept of a preemptive strike must not be used as an excuse for aggression.
One should not let fear govern. More guns being carried compound the problem. |

A whole lot of nebulous hot air signifying nothing. What is your proposed 'solution' - to go defenseless?
Human nature is what it is. Providing for the defense of one's self, family, community, state and country is the American way to deal with it.
Laws that impede that basic freedom are not only ineffective for the ostensible purpose, but they are illogical and ethically obscene. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
