Fact is, "police protection" is an oxymoron. Free citizens must be able to protect themselves.

Police do not protect you from crime: they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

Remember: The average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a .357 magnum is 1400 Feet Per Second.

Do the math.
