The reason police like gun control is that they no longer have to identify good guys with guns from bad guys with guns.

If they get their way on gun control, then only bad guys will have guns and it will be much safer for them to open fire.

Tell ya what Chiefy-wiefy….

You give up YOUR guns, then I’ll consider it…And promptly reject the idea.

It’s called a RIGHT and we don’t ask public SERVANTS for permission.

Screw that.

With a gun, I *AM* free.

Without one I am slave to whoever still has one.

"Franklin said, “Law enforcement – we are the experts. We’re the subject matter experts at protecting America – right? – protecting our cities. And, you know, we should be utilizing that in that manner. So I am charged with protecting this community. And if there are better ways of protecting it, I think we should be looking at those better ways to protect it.”"

Let's see how it sounds with a little editing:

Mika Brezinski said, “Mainstream media – we are the experts. We’re the subject matter experts at protecting America – right? – protecting the public from misinformation. And, you know, we should be utilizing that in that manner. So I am charged with protecting this community. And if there are better ways of supressing misinformation, I think we should be looking at those better ways to suppress it.”

The problem is:
It’s not OUR guns,
It’s YOUR sons.

Why don’t you enforce the law? How about fixing the corrupt DAs freeing the criminals? Take freedoms and rights away from repeat criminals first! Why do leftists always want to ditch the flock and side with the wolves?

No need to call the guy names, period. We're not here to do that and that's not what we are. Have a well-though-out debate with him. I'd treat him to lunch and have some VERY good thoughts to give him. Here are a few:

1. We are having severe problems in society because right and wrong are not being taught, not in the schools, not at home and not at church.

2. We are having severe problems in society because right-doing is not rewarded very well and wrong-doing is certainly not punished adequately.

3. If folks can't get their children taught properly, take their children away. I'm serious. It is time to give up the Republic and democracy in general until we get the people taught right and wrong and the proper rewards and punishment in place. Now, THAT is going to upset some people but I mean EVERY word of it.

Put the homeless in work camps and they stay there until they get off of drugs/alcohol/etc. and are able to function in a job and with other people. If they can't, execute them. Same for drug addicts in general. ANYONE committing an act of treason is to be hanged. ANYONE involved in trafficking drugs is to be hanged and his/her entire immediate family executed. ANYONE killing an American overseas for no reason or who has not done them wrong is to be hunted down and killed. These folks who want to protest violently and damage property in the process would be caned with at least ten lashes, men or women, and so forth. The guy who survived in his attempt to kill Rittenhouse would be picked up immediately and hanged publicly. You let your pants go down over your buttocks, you get caned.

All sexual perversion expressed publicly would be subject to the death penalty which would be public hanging. Lawyers. Hmmm...that would take a special group to work on that. Many would be given the opportunity to leave the country and never return, on penalty of death for what they've done. I'll reserve commentary for that bunch since I have a special connection to the law profession. The media, now that would take special effort, but I promise I could get the job done starting with the schools where they are taught the profession. It used to be who, what, where, when, why and how and you reported objectively without inserting your opinions and you certainly didn't promote wrong-doing of any kind for any reason.

I earned my graduate degree in that field with a 3.9 GPA. I could get it back to that premise. The officer who is the subject of discussion should read this, but, he probably won't. He is not the expert he believes himself to be and I could point that out to him. I don't need to call anyone names. You want more thoughts, I have them. Read my tagline over and over again until you get it. Disclaimer: I wrote this in a hurry as I have to go out and do some work in connection with the law profession. Please overlook errors. Have a good day everyone.

I agree. The criminals trade THEIR freedom and get gun control so the rest of us can live our lives.
