The massacre at Virginia Polytechnic on Monday has many people talking about the need for more gun control. Obviously, without guns, people would not get killed with guns. But they would be killed with other means, such as explosives, knives, bats, sticks, steel pipes, chemicals, string, wire, tape, hands – you get the idea. So, therefore, the real need is for PROTECTION.
Some people say that, if the police had all the weapons (usually guns), other people wouldn’t need them to protect themselves. But can we rely on police protection? A number of court decisions have been made that say that police have NO OBLIGATION to protect you. (Source: http://hematite.com/dragon/policeprot.html) Their job is to investigate and to apprehend ... after the fact. So where does that leave us? ... Sleep well.
