I just finished a discussion with a neighbor regarding gun control. I wasted my time & effort. The ignorance of the general public astonishes me.
The reality is that YOU are responsible for your safety. Any no matter what you always have the right and duty to defend yourself.
If you assume you can rely on law enforcement to protect you because you always have your cell-phone handy you are seriously mistaken. LEOs try their best to respond in time but far too often it's impossible.
Guns aren't evil... stupid people that use them incorrectly are.
If you are not proficient with a firearm, take a safety class then become intimately familiar with them and practice. When the time is right, buy one!
Imagine if you had to live with the guilt of watching a loved one raped and/or murdered while you stood by helpless.
It isn't the cops fault for not showing up in time, it's yours! You ARE the first line of defense. Wake up and do something about it before it's too late.
