Gun Control - An Argument for Gun Control
Guns in the wrong hands are dangerous. Guns should only be in the right hands. Which hands are the right hands? That is the question. Now for the answer... The right hands are the citizens' hands. When the citizens have guns, there is freedom. When the government has a monopoly on guns, there is tyranny. We need to take away all guns from all government employees and especially the most dangerous government employees, the police. There are many studies and statistics that support the basic fact that police are far more dangerous than terrorists. Conservatively stated, you are at least 8 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than by a terrorist. I would urge that all police should be disarmed and deprived of their body armor. Police can be issued whistles that they can blow to try to get honorable citizen passersby to help them if they are in danger. Armed citizens can protect our police far better than police can protect us. A good illustration to support this content...
