Carnage on a Norweigan Island

[Andre]

Maybe a new kind of armed security with civil proven mature aged men in it?

Oh the general question of violence in society?

I'm not sure there IS a good answer. Like many bad things I suspect it is an inherent cost of freedom.

My own view is that a bad guy with a baseball bat or a knife or a tire iron is a significant threat to the innocent. A reasonable man carrying a gun is not.

My own view is any man who permits himself, or his family, to be secure only at the whim of bad guys, the government or who leaves his security subject to the competence of the police is a fool.

Put another way. Al Queda having access to nuclear weapons troubles me from time to time. The Brits having them bothers me not at all.
