    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I hope the hon. Member does not know some people who are in possession of illegal firearms. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on that score, I feel very discouraged by people who move around in the name of human rights activists. They blame police officers for shooting criminals. I wonder whether any of those activists have found those criminals in their houses holding their daughters, wives and entire families hostage! What would they say? They will say: \"Wait a minute! I will call the police to come and arrest you!\" A man or a woman carrying an illegal firearm and aiming it at you is not a person you will arrest, unless you can do so when you are already dead! The issue of illegal firearms needs the support of all hon. Members and Kenyans, if we are to have security in this country. Many hon. Members have been blaming the Government about insecurity. We cannot have double standards. We are claiming that there is insecurity and yet, we want to defend those who are promoting insecurity. We need to be consistent. With those few remarks, I beg to support. Thank you very much."
