| No, those that are public servants bring the shame onto themselves when the falsely believe they are somehow "above" the citizens of this country. Sooner or later something like this will happen and you will have to endure the shock of learning that we are not a police state. The citizens and their elected officials run things and can carry guns, wear uniforms, etc. as decided by the citizens. Anyone shocked should have known this already. Since the average LEO has an IQ barely over 100 are we to think other successful citizens, some with IQ's ranging from 130 -200 are somehow less worthy of a uniform and a 9mm pistol. Not all LEO's are this way but for the ones that are your arrogance is not warranted. |
