I was just going to post this. Most of the cops I know are very pro 2A, but I am still a little surprised by the massive pro 2A opinions in this poll. ![[grin]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/041.gif "Grin [grin]")

Shouldn't be, wander over to masscops and poke around, they're actually very pro 2a. It gave me some faith in the police in this country, and that's been VERY hard to do since the invention of the cameraphone.I am still a little surprised by the massive pro 2A opinions in this poll.

This jives with what I have heard from officers I have spoken with face to face (I have a few family members that are police).

Poke a little deeper. Most of the guys over there might be pro 2A, but are very anti when it comes to individual rights. Respect my authoritay!

What he said...
and thank you to all the officers who participated. This is a very powerful statement that needs to be echoed to every elected critter. They keep hammering home how we need these things and parade out a minority voice to the contrary amongst law enforcement for their dog and pony shows.
Great poll. I hope it gets some airplay on at least alternate media outlets
What matters is that elected critters starting hearing this from their constituents.
They have no interest in educating their constituents to this truth - that is our job.
As above, don't wait for them, spread the word on your own.
Interesting... Now If I understand it right though, police Officers are not allowed to speak out publicly on their views? Or is that just in their uniform?
Because if a lot feel this way, where are they?

I agree. In the Northeast officers are less verbal than the west and south. Why? I believe politics has a lot to do with it. It's who you know.What sheriff you donate money too.
I know Cops, correctional officers and firefighters around the Boston area. They will all tell you that the system is corrupt.

Why? Because the vocal minority on NES are cop haters? Don't let the BS sway you. Most cops ARE pro 2A.

...at the rank and file. Diminishes as they rise in the ranks (and become politicians).
Actions speak louder than words. You are not pro-2A if you make a living by punishing people who are practicing their 2A rights. You are a shitbag.
No one who makes a living by enforcing MA gun laws is pro-2A. They are a hypocrite at best. And a jack-booted thug at worst.

Yep, I expect this one to circle the globe in the coming days...

Remember, cops are civilians. They're not military. Most of the gun-grabbers have no problem with the military having guns and often times they also include "police". But some dyed-in-the-wool antis only say "military".
Not that it means much.
But the military doesn't include the police. I'm sure most police officers, just like all of the responsible, private owners of guns, don't want any further infringements on their Constitutionally-guaranteed rights.
