That means very little. <br /><br />One has to be almost comatose to think the police are going to help you with a home invasion or a robbery or mugging. A person’s defense is up to them. You can either get on your knees or defend yourself. <br /><br />It is not the duty of the police to protect you. Their job is to protect the Corporation and arrest code breakers. Sapp v. Tallahasee, 348 So. 2nd. 363, Reiff v. City of Philadelphia, 477 F.Supp. 1262, Lynch v. N.C. Dept of Justice 376 S.E. 2nd. 247.<br /><br />Many americans don’t realize they are under the control of the London Crown Temple. <br /><br />Guns used 2.5 million times a year in self-defense. Law-abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves against criminals as many as 2.5 million times every year -- or about 6,850 times a day. This means that each year, firearms are used more than 80 times more often to protect the lives of honest citizens than to take lives.<br /><br />Of the 2.5 million times citizens use their guns to defend themselves every year, the overwhelming majority merely brandish their gun or fire a warning shot to scare off their attackers. Less than 8% of the time, a citizen will kill or wound his/her attacker. <br /><br />As many as 200,000 women use a gun every year to defend themselves against sexual abuse.<br />I personally prefer the sig saur 9mm automatic. I don’t recommend anything heavier than that for a woman. You lose some stopping power with it as opposed to a 40 cal or 45 cal however. The Smith and Wesson lightweights are good, you can carry them in your pocket, but there again you lose stopping power. dublinmickhttps://dublinsmick.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-27341149593842991702015-10-11T04:18:55.613-07:002015-10-11T04:18:55.613-07:00Absolutely correct.

And if there were more Americans like him—at least one in every classroom, movie theater, and Bible study, ideally—mass murderers would think twice before shooting anything. <br /><br />The meme gets at the central argument espoused by the pro-gun lobby in recent years, rephrasing former NRA President Wayne LaPierre's famous 2013 statement that, "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun." <br /><br />Unfortunately, though, LaPierre's "good guy" fantasy is just that. While it's true that gunslinging civilians have stopped a few shootings, in real life, these armed vigilantes can also be very unhelpful. In the heat of a firefight, they might aim for the wrong person, for example, or end up shooting that person in the head. And sometimes, they get themselves killed. <br /><br />If you get away from action movie scenarios, science says gun owners are less safe from gun violence than other people. Because when the good guys end their nightly patrols and holster their guns, they generally take those guns home. And studies have shown that once they're there, they're more likely—twice as likely, by some estimates—to be killed by a "bad guy" than people who don't keep firearms at home.<br /><br />http://www.vice.com/read/calling-bullshit-on-the-internets-right-wing-gun-memes-392Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-26660376628943780692015-10-10T22:08:33.265-07:002015-10-10T22:08:33.265-07:00The pundits are divided on whether or not Israel h...The pundits are divided on whether or not Israel has strict gun laws.<br /><br />The pundits are divided on whether or not Israel has a high rate of gun crime.<br /><br />According to B'Tselem 49 Palestinians were killed by Israeli civilians between 2000 and 2010.<br /><br />Let's not forget the 1995 assassination of Yitzhak Rabin by an israeli. <br /><br />In 2013, Itamar Alon, an Israeli citizen entered a bank in Beersheba and opened fire, killing four and wounding five.<br /><br />In 2005, an armed man entered a Tel Aviv meeting place for gay teens and opened fire on the crowd, killing two.<br /><br />In 1994, Baruch Goldstein shot dead 29 people and wounded 125 in an attack on Muslim worshipers at the Tomb of the Patriarchs. <br /><br />In 2005, Eden Natan-Zada, an Israeli, opened fire in a bus in Shefa-Amr in northern Israel, killing four Arabs and wounding twelve others.Anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16577270335071593954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9003998945645458544.post-84037487995759622592015-10-10T15:24:32.622-07:002015-10-10T15:24:32.622-07:00There are a huge amount of guns in Israel, & y...There are a huge amount of guns in Israel, & you see them all over the place. For Israel's approximately 6.25 million Jews, there are something approaching to a million guns in homes or available to be carried. And there is very little Jew-on-Jew gun crime despite many of the weapons being full-auto (i.e., 'machine guns').<br /><br />Israel issues concealed weapons permits to Jewish Israelis, & to dual-citizen USA-Israelis who carry guns while in Israel.<br /><br />About 500,000 are directly civilian guns (gunpolicy.org stats), & there are another half million which are technically government guns but which are carried around by Israel's huge military & reservist population which is approaching a half million people, rather like in Switzerland where a large military reserve is maintained.<br /><br />Israel has a long positive experience of stopping crimes with guns, e.g., an Arab pulled out a gun in a shopping centre & was immediately shot by several Israeli civilian shoppers carrying concealed weapons, much to the Arab's shock & surprise.<br /><br />From the press, 21 Nov 2014: "This week, Israeli Public Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch announced a decision to relax the rules governing the carrying of firearms & the issuance of licenses to carry ...
