  1. Ya, if the police aren’t there to stop you! There are a lot more good people willing to fight evil than the government/criminal class would like.
    Israel ended this crap years ago by arming its people.
    The new Philistines went from guns, to car bombs, to firing homemade rocket at them.
    Armed people ready to fight works every time it’s tried.
    Once we get rid of this caste of communist whiners. This mass shooter crap will work itself out in nothing flat.
