Something that deters crime,
And really makes sense,
Is an armed citizen,
Who knows self-defense.
It's foolish to think,
That if taken away,
The criminal element,
Wouldn't target us as prey.
A law abiding person,
Though armed to the hilt,
Will not use a gun,
To establish his gilt.
Criminals don't worry,
About anti-gun laws.
They'll manage to break them,
To support their cause.
