<< Not far from me a local shop keeper was shot without thought or conviction
by a youth who just robbed him, there was a bit of an outcry in the local
paper but that is all. >>
The British have long sinced being a free people. The fact is, the
government is more afraid of armed citizens using their weapons against the
gov't than they are of whatever outcry there may be over the occasional
murder. Being armed over here isn't a guarantee you won't get murdered, but
I suspect more robberies are thwarted by armed shopkeepers and customers than
the other way around. Until the gov't is righfully afraid of its citizens,
you can count on the criminals being afraid of neither.

There was a newsworthy case in Miami today where five robbers shot
a man four times in the back, his 14-year old son retrieved a gun
from the house and killed one robber, seriously injured another.
