‘How do we stop mass murder?’ I keep seeing this question on social media after the murders at the Pittsburg Synagogue.
Most of the people asking this question feel strongly about things they don’t understand. They have not studied the issues of physical defense or contemporary mental health. I’m sorry to give them the bad news, but there is no magic button to fix the human condition.
We can not eliminate mass murder, but we can reduce it. |

I guess that it has been said, that if you feel a touch of Evil it's too late, that's probably true. The demented person that has death and destruction on their minds, will always find a gap in your defenses, providing you even have one. Law Enforcement means well, but they can't be everywhere all of the time. Be ready... Seconds count... |

By everybody refusing to be murdered, by DOING something about it (hint: CARRY A GUN). |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
