It has nothing to do with [[:Category:Safety|public safety]] or preventing [[young mass murderers|mass shootings]] of innocent people.

| | + | [[Thomas Jefferson]] said, "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are [[citizen|neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes]]... Such laws make things worse for the [[victim|assaulted]] and better for the [[criminal|assailants]]; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent [[murder|homicides]], for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” |

| | + | If we truly wish to increase public safety, then we should make laws whereby immediate [[self-defense|armed responses]] by good civilians are allowed and encouraged – now that will save our children and stop these senseless massacres by madmen. President [[James Monroe]] said on November 16, 1818, "The right of [[self-defense]] never ceases. It is among the most sacred, and alike necessary to nations and to individuals." |
