So let me get this straight. You think we shouldn't have firearms because the police are going to protect us? Holy shit the mental gymnastics in your sick head should be in the upcoming Olympics. Congrats!

Why are you putting words in my mouth? The police wouldn't even need firearms in the way they do if it wasn't for the incredible amount of weapons in this country. This is how most reasonable countries around the world work. Firearms are relegated to extreme situations that most law enforcement officers don't have access to. Not to mention most countries require what is equivalent to a couple year degree of schooling to be a LEO
