I believe that it is a right for every human being to defend themselves. We live in world of guns, therefore we must defend ourselves with guns.

No shit. If everyone law-abiding person was trained and carried guns, we wouldn't need nearly as many cops.

And gun-toting citizens dont bother people, take up tax money, or drive government vehicles. So, I wonder if standard issuance of firearms and cutting cops jobs would save tax dollars....? Hey, the cops can join the military and kill terrorists. That is what we really need them doing.

Not a bad idea. I've always liked the idea of getting rid of taxes, and just pay a fee for what you use. I would just waive the fee for police, and buy a gun.

heh, think about it, if they let "law-abiding" citizens carry weaponry for use as self-defence then whats the possiblity of some off their rocker street gangs from acting like its in self-defence and going around and shooting people, i agree with the no taxes, they are a real bitch, but we need police officers to stop insane nutters from
threating to shoot us everywhere we go.

And what of the people who arent quick enough to pull out their gun in order to protect their lives, Bang they are dead before their hand is in their handbag/holster.

thats the most stupid thing i have read.

If they???

In the united states, most of the states here allow citizens to get permits to carry a concieled weapon or firearm.

Nothing new, i carry my firearm everyday.

That happens even to the best, highly seasoned, vetern law enforcement officals.

Key is, practice, practice, practice.

I can unholster my firearm from concealment, level out to a target and put two rounds center mass into that target in a little over a second.

The hand is indeed, quicker than the eye.

Hey, ass.

I presented it a question. We need to develop a better, less-intrusive system of law enforcement in this country.

How many citizens care if your license plate is expired? How many citizens care if you are possesing marijuana? We need to repeal laws on victimless crimes.

You must have intrusive law enforcement to enforce victimless crimes.
