That Supreme Court decision a few years back hasn’t taught the District of Columbia, our nation’s capitol, anything in the way of respecting people’s rights. Emily Miller at the Washington Times<\/a> who spent more than six months and spending hundreds of dollars to qualify for a permit to own a handgun in the District, reports that in a community meeting about the 40% increase in crime in the first two months of this year with councilwoman Mary M. Cheh, crime victims confronted the councilwoman with questions about the difficulty of purchasing weapons. The response;<\/p>\n

Paul Quander, the District\u2019s deputy mayor for public safety and justice, responded that crime victims should give the criminals what they want. Mr. Portman protested, saying, \u201cBut how do you know you\u2019re going live and survive? You\u2019re completely at their mercy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Quander thinks victimhood is preferable to self-defense. \u201cThe problem is, if you are armed, it escalates the situation,\u201d Mr. Quander told residents. \u201cIt is much better, in my opinion, to be scared, to be frightened, and even if you have to be, to be injured, but to walk away and survive. You\u2019ll heal, and you can replace whatever was taken away.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
