Time for me to post, yet again, one of my favourite quotes
"These are dangerous times. When we are afraid, we want to
be protected, and since we cannot protect ourselves against such
horrors as mass murder by bombers, we are tempted to run to
the government, a government that is always willing to trade the
promise of protection for our freedom, which left, as always,
the question: How much freedom are we willing to relinquish for
such a bald promise?" Gerry Spence
Substitute bombers with snipers/shooters and it applies to this incident
