Will someone please explain to me again how the laws on the books keep me safer from predators than does the gun on my hip?

Anyone?

“Will someone please explain to me again how the laws on the books keep me safer from predators than does the gun on my hip?”

Lawyers, social workers, counselors of all sorts, prision guards, parole officers, ad nauseam - all claim they are “preventing crime”, or “rehabbing offenders”. Blah, blah, blabber, blabber.

Trust the nice person in the system. They are there to help you.

Well, well! Gag me with a cliche - they are trying to.

What I can’t understand is the following, which was in the article after the article stated the perp was denied bail:
“He was appointed a public defender and was ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim.”

Something does not make sense. If in jail, without bond, how could the perp possibly have any contact with the victim?

Or is there something I missed? Not being a lawyer, perhaps I missed something obvious to those in the system.

What we had in the early 1800s was no law, and had to resort to vigilantism. Then came the law, with its protection of ordinary citizens, and vigilantism subsided. The courts and their judges were responsible, honest men who were fair and just.

Now with the infestation of liberals on court benches, we no longer have the protection of the law; in fact the case can be made that they’ve turned against us ordinary citizens in favor of illegal aliens, child rapists, and other criminals.

Is vigilantism again in order? Shall we again rise up for our own protection?
