Dear Fox News Hosts, Thank you for your courageous reporting of the news in your country. From someone watching from across the world, it is too easy for me to be able to put myself in your shoes so to speak and offer some advice on the problems plaguing American society at this time. But what appears to be necessary from my point of view is to realize that the rules have changed. Simply put, the incident at Mr Carlson’s home is a reminder that Pandora’s Box has been opened i.e. there will be more incidents of potential violence coming to your homes and families and it will probably remain open like this until there is a change in the mindset of the American people. This must sound like giving in, but wouldn’t it be a good idea to use this incident as a warning, and for every one of you to move into an apartment building with a doorman, for example? It would instantly change the equation, and you would never have to worry again about someone attacking your home and families while you are at work. Secondly, after the latest California shooting and watching another parent crying his or her heart out for a fallen son or daughter, isn’t it time to get an unwritten law floating in society about guns? Isn’t it time to have an unwritten law, that the moment there are more than four (4) people together – anywhere – for example, that one of those people be wearing a gun plain and simple? Excuse me if it sounds absurd, but if one of the people in a restaurant or music venue where more than a small number of people were gathered wore a gun, it might be the trick for at least being able to stop a gunman from loading a second clip. It is what I believe what is necessary to do asap, in that there are unstable, dangerous people out there who have access to firearms. And let’s be clear, it is one bad apple that makes us have to change how we live. Look at the airline security revolution! One out of four people carrying a weapon every time at least four people were in a public place would ensure that another shooting incident could be seriously hampered or even stopped. We have always had to adapt to survive and now is no different.

Wynter, It is great to see you have things sussed out, worked out, or sorted out about guns. After the California shootings last week, where the father of one of the kids was in the place at the time and saw an opportunity to stop the shooter when he changed clips, but he changed his mind and high-tailed it because he was protecting his kid. He was crying to the reporters and excused himself for not trying to bring the madman down, because he knew he could have stopped the shooter putting in a second clip. If he a gun he wouldn't have hesitated. It made me come to think that in a land where guns are available to the masses, there is only one way to go and that is the way you and your friends are doing. I don’t think it’s sad to have to arm oneself when it’s in the constitution that people have the right to carry firearms. But then it’s logical to me that everyone should carry firearms, and accept it as part of being free in a great country like America. If I were living in the USA and my kids went out to a restaurant and a bar later – like we all do – then, I would always want one out of bunch to carry a gun. It doesn’t have to be anything more than that. There are people who are unstable everywhere in the world, but there comes a time when you have to have the same equalizer that they might have if they decide to take people with them on their suicidal journey. On a completely different front, from 1992 to 2018 combat crossfire killed 299 journalists. No fewer than 849 were murdered. It should be part of being a journalist in our times to carry a firearm. 200 green environmentalists were murdered in 2016. What if they carried a weapon and were trained how to use it? Many or some might still be here today protesting against attacks against Mother Nature. @wyntermackenzie4952
