Pacifying Citizenry

“In August, a man shot two people to death on a bridge near San Francisco. At the moment of the killings, two on-duty Marin County sheriff’s deputies were within 100 yards of the shooter. One was close enough to see the muzzle blast of the shotgun. The police officers, however, did not move against the culprit. One, stuck in traffic, called in a description of the killer’s vehicle as he fled. The other positioned her car to prevent traffic from entering the crime scene.”
This is even more egregious because, as the article continues to say, the shooting occurred in a county where citizens could not carry firearms unless they demonstrated a clear threat to their safety, such as the former district attorney. Instead, citizens of this particular county are at the mercy of the police force to “defend” them.
I believe all citizens should have the right to defend themselves from any act of aggression; entitlement to Life, Liberty and Property is a direct result of citizenry having the ability to maintain their rights, via violence if necessary.
