Like Pete says, we need to push that they are criminals using these firearms, and try to redirect Polly/police efforts to get them out of criminals hands.
Couldn't agree more!!!
It doesn't matter what a gun looks like, whether its a .22 or 50 bmg or even its rate of fire.
And its not just Joe citizen, its the police too.
At the end of the day, a gun is an imminent potential deadly threat and should be handled as follows in a criminal scenario-
See gun- tell crim to put it down/surrender peacefully- non compliance = stop public threat with extreme prejudice.
That should be SOP, no batons, no pepper spray, no tasers, no trial by social media.
