Even if it means you die? What if it means your children would die?
People are dying anyway, question is do you want to improve your lot in life or die cowering in a corner. Personally I'll go down fighting for right and to improve things, but wait I can't because people like you think only criminals should have guns.
So if you witnessed a crime you would be fine with your children dying as a result of your testimony?
Do you even have kids?
I would protect my family even if I had to send them a way for a while, you can keep coming up with excuses why people accept living in lawless shit holes. The truth is they don't have to, they can get involved in fixing the problem or they can move. And don't give me any crap that they can afford to move, illegals come thousands of miles with nothing and they seem to do just fine, so yes they can move.
