Let me make sure if I Understand the Police Officer's Position. We should SPEND more money on law enforcement (I'm SHOCKED a cop what have this position), but we shouldn't allow people to defend themselves.
The former (more money for cops) costs money. Real money -- and lots of it. What does the average officer make? 40k? 60k? So let's flood the streets with 1,000 more officers, a total cost of $50M. That STILL doesn't NEARLY guarantee a officer is going to be near by and available when my family needs him!
OR...
The latter, allow people to legally carry a firearm concealed -- so they can defend themselves. This costs NOTHING. Sounds like BIG GOVERNMENT to me....
This isn't to say the Democrats are the only one who want big government -- the Republicans do too, only in different areas...
ETA: The nutty white haired guy at the end of the third video -- he doesn't look sane to me, but what do I know?
