Are you saying only the police have the ability to take this guy down?  How long would he last in an armed society?  He would be more likely to be caught or shot by a citizen.  They are no more likely to make a mistake in identification than the police are.
I trust the average, law-abiding citizen to make responsible decisions under such circumstances.

The entire English disarmament of its population had nothing to do with crime. The intent was to disarm the population to prevent insurrection.


You what?

you can do whatever you like... just don't forget the parts about due process, fair and speedy trial, jury of peers, etc.

I don't trust the mob mentality. It kills people.

Rather than trot out some pictures of our own "great" history of mob justice, maybe you should do a search on lynchings.

Just to be clear. I don't give a rat's bellybutton about Iraq, or Kuwait, or Saudi Arabia, or Israel. I simply believe that our continued involvement in middle-eastern conflicts hasn't been nor will it ever be successful.

I also believe that I'd rather take a hit and then erase the offending country off the face of the planet then go about eradicating "potential" threats that have absolutely no reason to welcome the heavy hand of U.S. involvement in their conflicts.
