My Dad once called the police because someone was out in the barn doing
damage. The police said that they would not be there for about 1/2 hour.
My Dad went around and locked all the doors to the barn so that they
could not get out, then called the police again and said. There is no
need for you to come now. I've locked them in my barn and shot all of
them. The police were there in 4 minutes.
So if that murderer comes into my house he will meet my brother's Smith
and Wesson.

Calm down Bill.
This discussion is how it pertains to the OS and software in the way of
bugs and security.
If a murderer is on the loose in my neighborhood, it is the
responsibility of the police to get the word out and find him. They
notify me about it and tell me to close and lock my doors at 10:00 AM. I
go to bed at 8:00 PM and leave the back door unlocked. He comes in and
murders me. It is my fault because I knew the door should have been
locked, and I did not lock it.
OF COURSE, the root cause of my death is the murderer. (Like duh.) But I
have to accept responsibility because I did not follow instructions, and
not blame the police. That is what the discussion is about, whether or
not to blame the police.

No, I won't go there. Yet...
