My Commentary On American, Local, Regional, International & Israeli News

Headlines:
Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles wants more information about what the proposed Stand Your Ground legislation will look like, stressing the critical need for public consultation before the government proceeds.
She acknowledged the public’s growing concern over safety, noting that many feel unsafe even within their own homes, especially given the high costs of security measures such as gun licences and surveillance cameras.
Yet she stressed that the law’s extension beyond private homes into public spaces requires careful consideration given the country’s own social and crime dynamics.

My response:

In other words, opposing and obstructing will be the PNM's agenda for the next 5yrs. Do bandits, kidnappers and extortioners consult with law abiding citizens before invading their homes or blocking them on the roadway? Why do these politicians pretend to care about the common man's safety, when the reality is that crime is completely out of control because criminals KNOW that the vast majority of citizens are defenseless prey? As long as an individual doesn't have a criminal record and doesn't suffer from mental illness, they should HAVE THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS! All citizens should also have the right to defend themselves and their families if someone is attempting to invade their homes, businesses or even vehicle!
