SCOTUS has clearly ruled that the police have absolutely no duty to protect any citizen: they only react to crimes already committed, or in the process of being committed, and then to apprehend while protecting themselves: they have no duty to put their own lives in danger to protect anyone.
The author of this drivel suggests otherwise: the headline should read "...Police" instead of "...Protect".
Those, like the writer, who seek to disarm law-abiding citizens, removing their means of effective defense against criminal predators, merely aid and abet those criminals by doing so.
The firearm is a tool: nothing more. And so is the author of the opinion piece in the Seattle Times. |

| When they sell firearms back to the public, the buyers have to go through a background test. They don't get them if they fail it!!!!!!!!!!!! |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
