Ponder this story: £40m Heathrow gold robbery foiled:
A gang of men got out of the van and threatened warehouse staff with at least one firearm and other weapons, including knives, Scotland Yard said.
The gang tried to steal the gold bullion at the warehouse and force their way into a secure area containing a large quantity of bank notes, police said.
In a nation where citizens don’t carry guns, the bad guys feel safe trying to steal $70 million dollars with one gun and a couple of knives.
Thieves would not be so bold in great swaths of the United States and in Israel.
