I got rid of my guns 35 years ago because I had an accidental discharge in the same room in which my infant son was getting his diaper changed

BTW, you never explained how you f'd up. What did you do?

I am LE. Don’t worry about gun confiscation. There wouldn’t be enough time, men, or money. We can’t even get guns out of the hands of known drug dealers with felony records and known gang members and they only account for about 1 out of 1000 American gun owners. It’s a stupid fantasy to even suggest the idea.

Also, a person would be a moron and a bastard for threatening to kill me in this forum and I take personal offense to it. Generally speaking, LE is your best friend in a ridiculous confiscation fantasy scenario. All of the chest thumping and direct threats are sickening. Go join Antifa or BLM.

The whole topic is stupid and impossible and neither I, nor any LE I know, would participate.

Your POV is appreciated. Trumps the OP’s theory.

Note that there are some bad LEO eggs, hence my historical examples. There are good eggs too, hence the NOLA case stopping quickly.

To wit: with vigilance, the lead assertion is proven false.

Same here and couldn’t agree more. With budgets getting cut and resources more limited than ever. LE’s biggest challenge is retention. One can go with the oil fields, mines or power plant for twice the salary we make as LEO.

"genuinely worry they will not go home that night"

or more importantly, have a home to go back to... they don't live in a vacuum

How about just use the guns instead of hiding them. If you don’t, you will probably end up dead anyway.

Only a liberal idiots think something can be proved without actually doing it.

So, go a head and try and we’ll then prove it.
