[QUOTE="nighthawk756, post: 12805817, member: 62883"] Very valid points discussed up to this point. But notwithstanding the political nature of the topic, it comes down to a very rudimentary fact. Criminals don't obey the law. They acquire whatever type weapon they desire very easily. LE has to face those same individuals many times over what a normal citizen has to face them. Therefore it stands to reason that LE needs to have the best weapons to face that threat. So in my opinion, I don't think LE should be restricted. But on the opposite side of the coin, I'm 100% for keeping the 2nd Amendment intact. I'm 100% against any further restrictions on law abiding citizens. Should we revise the way mental illness is tracked and it be more readily available during backgrounds? Yes. But further restricting the types of weapons we buy? Absolutely not. And for the record, the reason "beat cops" don't get on the news to viliify their upper echelon for backing gun control is simple....their job would be in jeopardy. Most departments have poilicies restricting their officers (unless approved) from engaging in ANY political activity while in uniform OR while acting as an agent of the department(i.e.-not in uniform but identifying one self as being an officer from said dept.)
