What the 'arm yourselves as protection' people don't understand is that the situation will mirror what is going on in Iraq. A heavily armed occupation force becomes paranoid and fearful of all civilians, and most incidents become accidents instead of engagements with threats.

Only in America!(hope the hell it stays there)
