"criminal justice system" and "process" aren't probably the best deterrents for such a scenario, isn't it? I'm sure that something like "burglary", "rape" and probably "murder" would have been the actual scenario, had she not had guns to defend herself and her baby.. |
Good for her for doing what she did!
"Its better to have a gun and not need it, then to need it and not have it."
Don't think this is true? Well just look at Switzerland.
And on a slightly different note:
On a national level more people in the US then ever are legally buying guns and violent crime is reduced.
And yet Chicago, the city with the strictest handgun laws in the US, now has one of the highest murder rates, and high crime too.
