Adam Stanislav: > Criminals would be less likely to commit violent crimes if they expected > most people to be armed and trained. Except that having most people carrying arms, you're raising the bar for criminals because those who really want to commit crimes will be expecting to be met with arms and will behave with that in mind. They won't hesit to fire first and you end up with more people shot. That's not a solution. I think that the US way of thinking is far too utopian. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 4.0-CURRENT #78: Sun Feb 27 15:32:39 CET 2000 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
