Crime stories in the news have one peculiar recurring theme, the victims are unwilling or unable to defend themselves. Anti-gun liberals try to negotiate with a pack of thugs ransacking the house, or a shopkeeper doesn’t want to be the one arrested. It’s the government that allows, foments, and encourages all of this.
