Subject: RE: NonMusic: Crime prevention - pleeeease
The main fallacy of protecting ones home from robbers is, that they usually strike when we are not home. So, what good is a gun?

I hate to agree with any right winger, but, the fact is, guns are not the problem. Everyone in Switzerland has a gun, yet there is no crime problem there. The problem is people, lack of impulse control, no respect for people or property, the horrors of drug addiction which drives people to kill and rob. The type of government has nothing to do with it. Guns are just tools, no guilt, they dont give a damn one way or the other. It's the human being that has possession of that gun that is either decent or no damn good. There should be a law against bad people.
