Detroit Police Chief Defends Citizens Using Guns for Self-Defense

If the fatal shooting of two intruders over the weekend are ruled to be in self-defense, then there have been 10 justifiable homicides in the city of Detroit since the beginning of 2014, according to The Detroit News. And Police Chief James Craig’s response? “You got to do what you got to do.”
In 2012, there were 25 justifiable homicides in the city, which made up 8% of all those nationwide. In 2013, there were 15. In January, Craig said he wished more “good Americans” would defend themselves, so that criminals would be deterred from committing crimes. Last week, Craig said at a press conference that in 37 years with the force, he’d never seen so many people defending themselves with guns – which he called “empowerment.”
via The Detroit News:
“People who are faced with a dangerous situation are taking matters into their own hands,” Craig said. “We’re not advocating violence; we’re advocates of not being victims. We’re advocates of self-protection. We want people to be safe.”
“This should be a message to those who continue to perpetuate violence on Detroiters that enough is enough. You’ve got to be concerned about good Detroiters who aren’t going to stand for it,” Craig said. “Detroiters are fed up and they are taking action.”
People with firearms can stop crimes, and with help and encouragement from people like Chief Craig, can turn around dangerous communities like Detroit once and for all.
