Stupid Liberal Cop

The stupidity of liberals in all positions doesn't surprise me, usually. But when the ten year police chief in Mercer Island, Washington comes out and says, “Americans WANT us to confiscate their guns,” I get a good laugh out of it. He says, “They depend on us to protect them,” when he KNOWS, from experience, nothing could be further from the truth. A gun in the hand of a potential victim is ten times better than in the hand of a cop, who may be anywhere from five to TEN minutes away. If he DOESN'T know that, he has no business being a COP, much less a police CHIEF. You can't protect someone if you are MINUTES away, while the armed CRIMINAL is THERE, and can do much damage in those few minutes it takes a cop to GET there. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out, just common sense. Which, apparently, this police chief doesn't have. (Eagle Rising)
