Bull****, you just don't hear about such cases much in the popular
press. It contradicts their liberal political agenda. The fact is,
the crime rates are lowest in places where concealed carry is most
widespread. I. e. the more guns on the street, the less crime there
is. This indicate that citizens carrying guns does, in fact prevent
violent crime. The criminals aren't all completely stupid, they will
move their activities to areas where it is safer for them to
operate. For example, violent crime rates are very high in D.C. but
much lower just outside the city limits. Because of, not in site of
the fact that D.C. has the most draconian gun control laws in the
country. Guns are used millions of times a year to prevent crime as
opposed to
thousands of times a year to commit crimes.


Quite the contrary, when the rare occasion strikes that an ordinary
citizen foils a crime, most especially with a firearm, it hits the
press big time. Also criminals, the violent type at least, are by and
large pretty stupid people. Finally if you want to find a very safe
environment, look to police states. In places where the gov't
prohibits almost everything overt crime is nearly non-existent. For
verification, you don't need word of mouth or folklore, look to the
news. While you may perceive them as liberal pawns, the liberals
perceive them as very conservative and the truth is that their
product is rather balanced. Just because you don't like it doesn't
make it biased.


Here are six cases in lest than a month. None of them made national news.

In the interest of truth, I am not from Kenya despite someones
determination. I have held positions that force me to deal with armed
individuals. I am usually unarmed and I feel pretty safe about it,
even in Florida. I'm going to go back to aviation related topics now.

Ok so you're not from Kenya. Please explain then where you are coming in
contact with all of the armed people that use their weapons to control
others that you mentioned in a previous post.
