This is the same mentality that kept Eric Holder’s people in New Orleans as Katrina bore down, the mentality that it is somebody else’ responsibility to save you.
That same regressive mentality also got lots of decent property owners in New Orleans disarmed, arrested, and even beaten by law enforcement when they took personal responsibility for defending themselves and their property.
So, you can see where it is a no-win scenario where regressive politicians like Ray Nagan rule.
