As NRA members and 2nd Amendment Supporters together we should spend more time reminding ourselves and each other what it means to be a sovereign citizen in a Constitutional Republic.
Civilian patrols are one small component of the larger plan outlined by our Constitution.
To fulfill the standard of "Eternal Vigilance as the price of Liberty" all adults should be familiar with and proficient in the use of firearms; a significant portion of them should be armed under as many circumstances as possible and the standard of prosecution should only apply to those individuals who actually commit crimes.
Many of the ideas you outline in your posts on this thread violate at least two fundamental ideas - "innocent until proven guilty" and "prior restraint".
For example, the notion that adults who acquire firearms are automatically to be treated as though they will use them recklessly flies in the face of research that has demonstrated between 1-2 Million incidents a year in which ordinary people have used firearms in self defense without ever firing a shot or even making a comprehensive report to "authorities".
Further we are blessed with empirical evidence of the negative effects on Society when government recklessly disarms adults by the example of both England and Australia.
Since those societies have managed to criminalize instruments of self defense the rate of crime and sheer brutal thuggery have skyrocketed. It is now generally conceded London is far more dangerous for ordinary individuals than New York or for that matter many third world countries.
This increase in general mayhem can be directly traced to the date of overregulation in regard to the concepts of armed self defense.
I hope you will find more time to reflect on the connection between armed citizens and a safe living environment regardless of location-home, school, parks, malls, highways or any other public or private space.
Best regards,
