"Everybody in Maine, we have constitutional carry. Load up and get rid of the drug dealers,” Gov. LePage said.

You're certainly correct that the evil pray on the weak not because they are stronger, but because the weak believe it is noble and holy to turn the other cheek.

You look at housing projects and you see thousands of people living there but only a few are the ones pissing in the hallways, spray painting the doors, breaking out the windows and selling drugs in the courtyards.

It would be so easy for just a small group of citizens there to tell those criminals to pack their bags and leave by morning or meet death, but that would be so out of reality for them, they cannot.

There are people however that would be happy to accept the task on their behalf if they were legally allowed to intervene.

Even police will not go into certain neighborhoods and will only respond to a call an hour later once the scene has cleared for them.

The only solution to a problem like that is meeting violence with violence.

Sure there are some sociopaths out there that just want to kill out of racism or hate, but I suspect there are far more who would be willing to eradicate gangs and criminals out of a sense of justice and community if the law allowed them to act and then present their case to a jury of peers.

Sadly, there are many people who believe a man who kills the man that raped and murdered his daughter out of revenge or to stop him from ever having the opportunity to ruin someone else's life should be punished harshly.

99% of violent offenders cannot be saved, they will not find God, they will not ever stop hurting others to help themselves. The only way to stop a group of people who would fire a hundred rounds into a crowd of innocents to hopefully kill a rival is to eliminate them from this world.
