This is too true.

It isn't a slam on cops either, they simply can't be everywhere all of the time, and who would want them to be anyway?

So many times I have posed this simple little question. You may interject son or daughter at your whim.


In the final moments of your daughter's life, just before her killer is about to dispatch her to that great eternal darkness, what would you rather she had in her hand? A cell phone or a gun?

It's fun to watch people who do not like guns squirm when you throw this one out. Most of the time, they say something like this. "Well I'd rather neither one of them had a gun." Not only is that not an option, but wouldn't you rather your child have a gun against an attacker? (they are assuming the assailant has a gun).

It really is fun to pose this little question to anti's.

Sad as it may be..... not only does the cop have a long distance to travel, he will also "stage" until backup arrives.

So the image should also show how close the backup unit isn't. :shock:
