Edit: Think about this for a minute. Why have a police force if you're going to let your citizens defend themselves?
yeah no you really do have no loving idea what you're talking about, the police dont just shoot up people when they break the law, they uphold the law entirely and deal with public issues, along with keep the public in order.
again, the police are no omnipresent and can not control everything, are you seriously assuming that when someone breaks into my house, i will cower and call the police and wait for them to get here, instead of grabbing my colt and taking matters into my own hands?
I've been to Florida, New York, California, Virginia, Alabama, Washington DC, Kentucky, Texas, Missisipi, Maine, and South Dakota.
The most places I've heard bullstuff was in Kentuky and Texas.
kentucky and texas are obviously like this, even other americans laugh at them
