Victim Zone State of Mind

From the anti-gun state of California comes a story of a (defenseless) woman chased through a parking lot by two kidnappers, while (defenseless) onlookers watch helplessly:

Kidnapping Caught on Tape
First Coast News (NBC 12)
CORONA, CA -- A security camera recorded the scene as the woman walked from a parking lot to the sidewalk outside the mall entrance. When a black car pulled up sharply, the woman looked over her shoulder at the car and took off running into a parking garage, the car went after her.

Two men jumped out of the car, chased her down, grabbed her and put her in the trunk.

A few shoppers appeared to turn their heads and watch but took no action. In addition, several motorists drove through the scene.

And from the victim zone nation of Great Britain...

New laws aim to ban shops from selling knives
(UK) Evening Times

NEW laws banning high street shops from selling assault knives, machetes and
other weapons could be introduced by the end of next year.

Sales of replica guns will also be banned because they can be converted into
useable firearms.

First Minister Jack McConnell has been in talks with chief constables on how to
combat the rising level of knife crime, which is at its highest level for 10
years.

Interesting...they ban handguns, and it isn't just crime with handguns that has risen. Seems criminals in England are learning defenseless people can be subdued with far less than a firearm.
