Another platform plank that would get my vote. If someone would run for president saying they would take all the military weapons from the cops they’d get my vote. But I’ve never heard a politician or a talk show “mouth” who doesn’t suck up to cops.
Most gun-rights advocates are quick to repudiate the “you don’t need that” argument...when it is directed at them.
No they are not, but I hope the police departments keep them well maintained, fueled, stocked with plenty of ammo, and ready to use.
We ourselves may very well need them in the upcoming days and since they are close at hand.................
