So Rob, You wouldn't want me or Oink, Jon, Dick, Big Isle,Rusty to be your neighbors?
I can assure you that crime would not be even an issue if we all on the same street. I would also say that no one would be shot. The thing about human nature is that folks tend to behave their most base when there are no consequences. If we lived in a world where thieves can take what ever they want willy nilly with no consequences you will foster the belief that it is exceptable and it will continue. Behavior is modified only by consequences.
The more immediate consequences are meted out and the more costly the consequences, the better the results.
Might for right! I say.
You and your ilk can fantasize about a utopian society where we all just get along but at the end of the day it is crap, without real world proactive measures.
And know this, Hitler was a huge anti-gun nut as all tyrants are.
