Actually I here that most people here, especially Qatari's have guns, cause they weren't illegal until a coiuple of years ago, and those that have them were allowed to keep them. Also, unfortunatly , we are too close to war zones. However, I don't live in fear of being shot or beaten here, but I do in the US.

Also if the cops can't handle it how about you give them more money, instead of arming untrained private citizens. You're creating a vigilante state not a civilized society.
