When all guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

When all guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns

Wednesday, October 12, 2005

Dear Sir

Folks, you know, “Almost comical” makes a lot of good points. Many of you just need to think of the saying: “When all guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns”. You need to arm your citizens because the police cannot be everywhere.

Our mayor was in a store recently and he observed a hold-up. He quietly took out his gun and held the person until the police came and removed the criminal. If you do not arm your citizens, Cayman you will continue to have hold-ups like you have on a daily basis there.

Wake up and smell the Cayman fresh air, people. What do you have to lose? Criminals? Please, do not continue to live in denial but just think about what you really need to do to get rid of your criminals. You cannot negotiate with criminals or terrorists. If one gets a bullet in the head the rest of them will go away into the woodwork. They are bullies!

Take charge of your own island and be assertive with criminals.
