No, the prosecutors and police would rather have people murdered in their homes and in public places by the thousands rather than risk having a populace that is sufficiently self-empowered as to be willing and able to recognize danger and take immediate action to end it. Thank God, we, as a people, are finally recognizing how crippling that compliance is and are turning away from it with the concealed carry and the “castle doctrine” laws that are being passed.

Although the occasion was more momentous, this quotation seems suitable:

“The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.”

Lincoln’s Second Annual Message to Congress, December 1, 1862.
