So what your saying is... let us all sink to the level of criminals?

You do realise the criminal will always have an advantage over jo public. Thats why they are criminals. When ciminals started using fists, jo public started using fists. So criminals started using knives, jo public starts using knives. So of course criminals start using guns, jo public starts using guns, so criminals find bigger better faster guns, what should jo public do now?

Its Idiocy pure and simple.

As for the heli. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to strap a shotgun to a helicopter may need some medical help. Rockets? Sure. Smal caliber automatic fire? Excellent. A shotgun? Erm..... duh?
