The hypocrisy of law enforcement.
It seems that if your trying to question authority through peaceful protest, you get beaten and tasered. But if your a RW teabagger who openly carries firearms and make open remarks on how the federal government should be abolish, then you get a pass?!?!?

F*** the Police!

1. This has the most to do with the mindset of someone called to law enforcement as a career.

To serve and protect. To taze and crack skull.

3. And yet you trust law enforcement to carry guns more than you trust your neighbors to?

4. Hey, I'm talking about RW nutjobs with guns! Not rational people!
Edited on Mon Aug-17-09 07:31 PM by Crowman1979
Get a grip! And those RW nutjobs include either: loonies who are either in law enforcement or out screaming at townhalls.

5. Fair enough
I think that was just mental spillover on my part from a gun thread in GD; sorry.

6. Neighbors are unsupervised and utterly unmonitored for any standard of fitness.
At least you can say a policeman views his gun as a tool of his profession.

An armed member of the public is more apt to view a gun as a solution to some personal problem.
