Anyone relying on the ability of police to protect them is deceiving themselves. I'd rather do it myself. So I'm a gun owner.

I get the self defense thing, I really do but what are you defending yourself from? A broken society by the sounds of it.

In places like China, Japan, The UK, Netherlands etc. it is either illegal or extremely strict and all of those countries have much lower homicide rates.

The UK has more crime though per capita, but I blame the legal system for that, far too soft.
