I was watching a program about the great Lisbon earthquake of 1755. After the earthquake, the firestorm and the tsunami, there was another disaster—the criminals were able to escape their jails due to the damage caused by the earthquake. They went of a crime spree of murder, rape and theft. This is what would happen to us if the criminals were let loose.
That too came across my mind long time ago. Since I live here in the Land of Fruits and Nuts California. I wonder if we had a big one and one of the walls of San Quentin or any other prison that would allow the inmates run free. Yet the people are not allowed to be armed.
