The Supreme Court found that LEOs have no legal duty to protect an individual,
EVEN IF THERE IS A RESTRAINING ORDER. See Castle Rock v. Gonzales.
Dispatch 911 - it's only been two minutes...
Armed victim, stop it... bang, bang, bang - end of problem, after SIX reports of personal attacks to the police, begging them for help, the citizen was forced to defend HERSELF.
There is no debate about the FACT that areas with more gun ownership in the United States have a lower crime instance than areas where there is restrictive gun control.
My solution, make open carry legal and "normal" everywhere. Statistically armed citizens are far less likely than "trained police/LEOs" to make a mistake in a shooting. (+1 armed citizens)
Then we hear from the typical ignorant feminized elitists "if we have open carry it will be like the wild west where everyone is shooting up the town! - oh my!" - Bullshit, in fact as you will see the "Wild West" was far from wild, and open carry contributed to the safety of the average citizen.
1. Countries with the strictest gun-control laws (with similar racial and cultural mixtures) also tended to have the highest homicide rates. - Violence, Guns and Drugs: A Cross-Country Analysis, Jeffery A. Miron, Department of Economics, Boston University, University of Chicago Press Journal of Law & Economics, October 2001.
2. Fact: only 15% of Americans have criminal records, roughly 90 % of adult murderers have adult records, with an average career of six or more adult years, including four major felonies. - victims as well as offenders, finally, tended to be people with prior police records, usually for violent crimes such as assault, and both had typically been drinking at the time of the fatal encounter... In sum, it cannot be true that possession of firearms causes ordinary people to murder, for murderers are virtually never ordinary, but rather are extreme aberrants with life histories of crime, psychopathology and/or substance abuse.- Roger Lane, Murder In America: A History - Ohio State U. Press (Translation - bad people cause crime, not guns and intoxicants aggravate the problem)
3. The American West (from 1830 to 1900) is perceived as a place of great chaos... Our research indicates that this was not the case: property rights were protected and civil order prevailed - The not so Wild, Wild West TL Anderson/PJ Hill, Dept. Economics, MSU.
4. "The Western frontier was a far more civilized, more peaceful and safer place than American society is today" - Frontier Violence: another look, W.Eugene Hollon
5. Of the five major cattle towns for the years 1870 to 1885 only 45 homicides reported - an average of 1.5 per cattle-trading season. Abilene reported to be the wildest cow town, had no homicides 1869-70. Reporting the break in the peace when officers of the law were employed - The Cattle Towns, Robert Dykstra, AAK NY
