It apperars to me that our society is approaching a crossroad when it comes to weapons & defence. We seem to be so caught up in holding people accountable & liability lately that were losing grasp of potentially serious issues.
The powers to be are constantly removing law enforcements ability to uphold / defend the law, or their lives with deadly force.
From what I've read, Mayor Menino shot down Boston PD's ability to use AR-15's. What message does this send to criminals?
Granted when a situation can be diffused without resuting in a fatality, (great) But what is the cost?
We now have stun guns, tasers, 12G bean bags, rubber bullets, flash bangs, tear gas, pepper spray, pepper balls, EMP's, directed energy/ sound waves, etc.
I guess my question is that if they take the firearms away from law enforcement, what does it spell for the future in terms of public safety or civilian & private firearm ownership?
