The real law enforcement disgrace

[vlyons]

So the Uvalde LEOs were afraid to go against a guy armed with an AR15 assault rifle and a shitload of ammo. And rightfully so. They may have been cowardly, but they aren't stupid. None of them wanted to be first in the door to die.

LEOs for years have known how terribly lethal are these assault rifles. The real disgrace is that they haven't called for their complete ban for civilians. But that too is cowardly. Gosh to do so would make them -- ya know -- look bad. Which I guess to them is more intolerable than how they look now after all the carnage that's being laid at their feet.

1. If LE is so afraid they can no longer do their jobs, they need to do something about it.

Instead of standing by and letting 2nd graders get murdered.

2. "Quit saying we should go in there!!!"

3. And the thing is, they favored the ban on them in the '90s and that helped...

it pass. Of course the repubs doing the W Bush admin let it expire a they had control of Congress.

Now things are so polarized cops won't even come out for a ban on weapons that can kill them too.

4. The result of over funding the police?

Cops are making too much money, and just want to lie and fuck with peoples lives. Untouchable. They circle the wagons for each other right or wrong.

5. If they supported gun bans for civilians,

how will they ever get to jack off in the privacy of their own bedrooms, gazing lovingly at their personal, private AR15?

6. Nothing says ban assault rifles like cops being scared of the shooter who has one.

8. They know that if civilians cant have them then they should either.

And they shouldn’t .
