Cops Against Guns

I'm surprised that police agencies around the country haven't been more vocal in calling for sensible gun legislation.

Aware of the influence of the gun lobby, and inaction in Congress, police chiefs from across the United States are demanding universal background checks for firearms purchases, citing support from the majority of American people in opinion polls.

Senior law enforcement officials at the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in Chicago link access to firearms to an uptick in homicide rates across urban areas in the US this year.

What? Isn't that enough?

  1. I wonder how the criminal leadership of the NRA will spin this. And the TPers --who, y'know, worship anyone in a uniform.

  2. I believe their guns are first in their hearts and the cops will be derided as dirty hippies.
