I heard this a few weeks ago on the radio.. "A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged." It's easy to criticise someone who defends himself until you find yourself in that position. But what does it say about you if you aren't even willing to protect family members who depend on you?Judging from what I hear in the news, sometimes I think the only ones who really know what's going on are the criminals.
Iamon lyme: In a perfect world, it would be nice if we didn't need guns. But we do. It's not going to change any time soon. And thugs that know you likely won't have a gun (as in the UK) can be more bold.
What's odd is that in the UK it's ok to own a gun (which we know kills) but not ok to own a handgun (which we know offers protection).
The liberal cry in the US is, "but what if the criminal gets to your gun before you do?"
um, they already have a gun. Or a knife. Or a bat. Maybe I should post a sign on my door that say, "Easy target - I've no weapons"
