[Blood of Tyrants]

I always find it interesting that people completely unwilling to defend themselves or their family think that a complete stranger should do it for them. They are usually the same people who wouldn't ask their families for money (usually because their families don't think that they will use it wisely) but are completely willing to ask complete strangers for assistance (i.e. you and me via the taxpayer funded government agencies).

Well, most people nowadays are simply brainwashed; they buy the BS without a thought. Which is why they suffer brain-lock when presented with utter contradictions such as that seen here -- all her life, this poor woman has probably heard over and over again the canard of "the police will protect you", only to find that there is no such obligation. Kind of late to find that out now!

And the fact that such promises are made when disarmament is the agenda makes such hypocrisy more than mere demagoguery, but tantamount to tyranny.

And, as you point out, not lifting a finger in your own defense yet expecting total strangers to put their lives on the line for you is morally bankrupt at best, a concept covered in enlightening detail in Jeff Snyder's "A Nation of Cowards".
