The people who live behind fences in gated communities with armed patrols lecture us that fences are evil and you don't need your own protection. They tell you to rely on calling the cops, while they have security everywhere. How does that work on the street? Cellphone? When seconds count, the cops are only minutes away. And they cannot be sued for failing to arrive. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN until cops show up. Are you a baby boomer? Can you still fight off two angry young men with your fists? A gun evens the odd between a 120-pound woman and a 220-pound attacker. What if it isn't just the purse he wants?
