Well no shit.....

If more Citizens and Legal permanent residents want to legally get armed up and legally start carrying, I'm all for it.
The fact that a huge percentage of the surge is folks with Mexican heritage is a big plus. Once they have their guns and like the feeling of freedom and safety it gives them, I think the Democrat Communists will have a harder time convincing them to vote to turn them in.
 
Even if cops are around and available they have no obligation to protect citizens, per the Supreme Court. Either protect yourself or become a statistic.
