DoJ stats say that 73% of violent crime occurs in the home with 86% associated with the family or families that reside there.

And what percentage of these are mysteries with the victim unidentified, do you think? I would say that it is approximately zero. Learn to read instead insulting me and quoting statistics which have nothing to do with the issue at hand.

Well bunkie, you are the one that started that particular reference. If you have no realistic anecdotal references to substantiate your stand, then perhaps your stand is in error?

After reading your and BlackbirdSST's posting, all I see is a camoflauged effort to play the same old libratarian saw but with a prettier wrapper. If this is so right, so pure, and so easy, why havn't the masses latched on to it and voted the "bums" out of office? Its because it isn't an answer.

Until you can eradicate the base instincts of man, those selfsame evils I listed previously, then you are stuck with the 80-20 rule. Societies cannot simply make mid-course corrections. It takes a LOT of time and energy to affect change in society. Simply declaring "anarchy rules" is NOT a solution. Give me a structured solution to move society to an anarchic base and I will stand beside you and defend it. But, don't destroy the existing system unless you have something or someway to accomodate the aftermath.

Semper Fi
