They willingly allow the government to impose greater restrictions on them without so much as a baaaaaaaaah. Most fantasize that greater restrictions will somehow encourage or force criminals to obey the laws and cease preying on the weak. These folks need to wake up and realize that THEY are in charge of their own safety and that THEY are the true first responders in their communities. The police will rarely arrive in time to stop a crime in progress. Most police agencies are understaffed and lack proper training & equipment to deal with major events. We cannot sit silently and watch others strip away our liberties. We must act now and be heard at the polls or soon there will be no one to hear us.
