> Why Should People Have Guns When We Have Cops

Because the police are just minutes away when seconds count?

What a DOPE.

Because when seconds count, the Police are only minutes away, and will be there to take a report.

Melvin starts his question on a false premise. Cops are NOT responsible for protecting the public. This question has been settled in a court of law.

EVERY law abiding person should carry. I don’t care what gender you are. It’s good for men to carry. It’s good for women to carry. Not all guys are buff and good fighters. ANYONE who’s smaller, older, has injuries or disabilities, is alone a lot, has responsibilities for others, are great candidates to carry.

YOU ARE YOUR BEST FIRST RESPONDER. Nobody cares about your life as much as you do. Act like you care about defending it.

I am 30 minutes away from Police protetion at most times.

Here is how it works in a rural community.

We call the cops for a shooting or cutting or domestic dispute. An Officer responds and parks a mile away and waits for backup, that could be coming from 20 miles away.,

He doesnt enter a dangerous situation without backup. Cant say as I blame them for that, but it takes time to get two cops on the scene. Meanwhile the guy that was beating his wife, finish’s beating her and is sitting down drinking a beer when they get there.

Now the most I have seen us have to wait for an officer for an accident is 15 minutes.

Most times around here when a theft call comes in the deputy is warned to be on the lookout for armed citizens in the neighborhood.

Sheriff, if law enforcement is charged with protecting the public, then, then, then why should that not be sufficient? Why should folks have to go out and get guns and arm themselves if we've got cops?

The USSC says that law enforcement has no responsibility to protect you from criminals.
