You don't think I know that!
I have been to so many countries, I have seen more than you could imagine, I have seen it first hand, the way weapons are used on innocent people, especially Haitians, when they don't need to be. But people, need to start looking at the needs of the people and talking to them instead of simply thinking that having guards and guns will solve all problems. You wouldn't need so many guards and guns if people were trying to resolve the real problem, instead of just referring to it as a "loss cause" and giving it a blind eye.
You think that the WTC incident didn't affect me, give me a break, who wouldn't it affect, but because shit happens everyday, that still make it okay, to solve violence with more violence. Increased guns, it will in turn increase violence in a country like the RD or Haiti.
