THE Gun Thread

Fine. Fire the police chief.


It still does not obligate the police to DO ANYTHING.

If the cops are supposed to enforce the law, and shooting school children is against the law, wouldn’t the police be obligated to stop the shooter from breaking that law?

While your police don’t have a legal obligation to protect citizens, they DO have an obligation to enforce the law. By standing idly by while children were being murdered, they failed in that obligation.

So, your contention that the police are not obligated to ‘DO ANYTHING’ is bollocks. If they’re not obligated to ‘do anything’, why do they write traffic citations, arrest drunk drivers, catch muggers, respond to domestic violence calls, etc?

Sorry it offends your sensibilities.


But the fact remains - the SCOTUS has multiple rulings that say that police are not obligated to put themselves in harms way to protect your life.


The man who whacked the monster was motivated because his wife and daughter were in there.....

Which leads to the reality - it takes motivation.....who is going to be more motivated than someone who is in the fire zone?

A teacher with a gun would have a better chance than one without.
