    The highest crime rates are where gun laws are most restrictive. Take Chicago, for example.

    Crime and violence are the bread and butter of the State -- they are co-dependent upon each other. Declaring something a crime, means having to pay someone to "enforce the law" which means putting people on a payroll AND giving them the authority to use violence as the means of enforcement. Violence begets violence.

    I believe the human race has made tremendous strides in 'civilizing' itself -- but the power seekers ever disrupt the peace in the community for their own gain, attempting to divide a house against itself.

    Peaceful citizens are in no need of firearms, crime and violence "explodes" because we are in need of knowledgeable and understanding, feeling, well adjusted individuals which this cowardly police state rejects. Knowledge and understanding are the characteristics of the well adjusted.

    illik, your theocratic socialism is a mental delusion of epic proportions. First, the use of the term "need", is a misdirection / off topic diversion from individual sovereignty, inalienable rights and liberty at nature’s / Constitutional law. Your theocratic delusions are antithetical to the specie man’s nobility, human nature and reality. History has proven the quotes accuracy over, and over, and over again. Crime and violence explodes when there is no counter balance to the malefactor recidivist. How do you define “knowledge”, “understanding” and “well adjusted”. Using those terms in a cause / effect or any relationship as concerns a socialist is oxymoronic.

    Oops, I don't know why the "S" did not print? It should read Sillik.
