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 |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
