Shooting the crims was a public service.

Well I think that Government should take more active role in this
to make
the country more secure so there is no need to arm everyone just in
case.

And they all realistically admit that they cannot and do not provide
individual protection for any citizen.The police cannot be everywhere
at all times.

So,practically speaking,you are on your own.It's just a matter of
what level of defensive weaponry your government allows you to have.

Note that the criminals are NOT likewise restricted.

I'm not proposing a bodyguard to every citizen. More in line of making
the society safer and tackling the source of the problem. Poverty,
unemployment, drugs etc.

I don't know of any country that has a handle on poverty,unemployment or
drugs.Do you?


If I lived in Baghdad I would definately get a firearm, but that
should not be the case in modern western country. If you really need
firearms to defend yourself there is something to be fixed.


Like there are NO crimes in Finland? No murders,no rapes,no robberies,no
burglaries,no assaults?
Individuals have widely differing security needs.A free society recognizes
that,and allows it's citizens the means and the right to defend themselves.
