RE: Choices! What would it be? #41

If it's not here and I doubt it's anywhere. It feels more than luck if they help you out.

To put charges you need to fill out a form on the internet. Most cases they put aside. The police has, and always had excuses and it depends on the person if they discriminate.

Perhaps street will be saver if people guard them themselves?

In my country, someone suggested making it legal for everyone to handle a gun. And though I understood that it was said out of concern due to the rising rate of insecurity, it left me worried because a law like that would only lead to rampage and carnage.

I want to agree that the street might be safer if people guard themselves. But thinking again, I've realised that individually or in an organised institution, no option is safer.

What we need now is an attitudinal reconstruction. And if the police can adopt this, our society would get better.

I'm enjoying this conversation. And I'm glad that you've engaged me in it.

I wish I had a gun. I would feel safer especially at home. On the other hand if I would take it outside I would easily pull the trigger if I bump into certain people. So I understand those Americans shooting at schools, malls and so on. At a certain point enough is enough

We should have the right to defend ourselves, our home, children but not even a pepper spray is allowed. On the other hand plenty of people have guns, knives use it, kill and get away.

It's a dilemma which I doubt the police can change. They work for the government although we pay their salary.
The moment will arrive policemen has to choose. They are not very popular, nowhere which says enough if not everything.

Perhaps lazy fat doughnut consumers like we see in American films are perfect to be sheriff or it's the perfect job for cowards (ignore what's going on) or narcisists and bullies?

Thank you for this discussion. Know you are not alone. Let's hope the world will be a better place. It would help if we, the people, stick together.
