CCRKBA: 'Prisoner Releases An Outrage'

"Reports that state lawmakers are considering the release of thousands of prison inmates across the country to save money amount to a public outrage, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today.

"The Associated Press reported Friday morning that legislators in several states are considering the move to prop up state budgets. One report said those released might include “drug addicts, thieves and even violent criminals.”

“Before we waste time wondering what raving lunatics are behind this idea,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, so-author of America Fights Back: Armed Self-Defense in a Violent Age, published by Merril Press, “it seems more prudent to advise the citizens who are faced with this ominous proposal that now would be a good time to start exercising their constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

"After all, the message that this sends to the public seems pretty simple: If you don’t own a gun, get one. If you’re not licensed to carry, you better apply now because cash-strapped state lawmakers obviously don’t care about the crime wave they’re about to unleash.”

CCRKBA further recommends that people acquire a firearm for protection if the streets are going to be flooded with violent criminals because cities abdicate their responsibility because they won't balance the books.

Makes sense to me.
