Even though early Chinese philosophers recognized the value of individual freedom, for most of China's history, the nation didn't have it. China was normally dominated by oppressive regimes that stifled social and economic freedom. As a result, their early inventions didn't develop as they did in the west. When gunpowder finally reached Europe (which was divided into many states all competing with one another), it led to a chain of continually evolving fireams. Arquebuses, muskets, rifles, shotguns, hand guns, revolvers, repeating rifles, semi-automatic firearms, automatic weapons. All becoming cheaper and cheaper so ordinary citizens could afford them, not just armies.

By Katherine Lam | Fox News

Homeowner speaks out after fatally shooting two burglars Two burglary suspects were killed by the homeowner.

A Tennessee man grabbed his gun and opened fire on two burglary suspects who broke into his home Friday night, killing both of them, police said.

The homeowner, who asked to not be named, told FOX13 he was walking into his home in Memphis when he encountered the two alleged burglars, identified as 28-year-old Azell Witherspoon and 17-year-old Demond Robinson. He was returning home from the barber shop and found the door pried open.

“[The suspect] picked up his weapon, turned around and points them at me…two pistols,” the homeowner recalled.

The suspects allegedly began shooting when the man’s friend ran outside. When the suspects dashed out of the house, the homeowner grabbed his gun and began firing.

"I mean, we’re in Memphis, you’re going to need a gun."

- Memphis homeowner“I just let loose, not knowing it hit both of them,” he said. “My life is the last thing anyone wants to take.”

“I’m sorry, but it was them or it was me,” he added.

Memphis police said Saturday the homeowner will not be charged in the deadly shooting.
