A nation should be armed against criminals


If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatre of operations during the last 22 months, with a total of 2,112 deaths occurring - that gives a firearms death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers.

The firearms death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period. That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the U.S. Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq!

Crime has increased dramatically in Australia since the public was forcibly disarmed.

Only criminals now have guns and they have no fear of home invasions or street muggings.

Political forces also now have no fear of an armed public.

What was the real reason for disarming the innocent public?
