These two signs highlight the difference with a free society. Sadly, too many Americans have been conditioned to likewise cower in fear, from honest words, from the weather, from self-responsibility for anything. The police in London cheer 8 minute response but think of how long that is when you have Islamic terrorist killing everyone they can. Eight minutes.
The eight minute response allows Islamic Jihadists armed with knives and vehicles to kill and maim a lot of innocent people.
Allow a National C&C in America, and even Chicago might become a fairly safe city.
