    https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2022...okemon-instead-of-responding-to-robbery-call/

    The Washington Post reports that two LAPD officers, Louis Lozano and Eric Mitchell, were called to respond to a robbery at a nearby Macy’s on April 15, 2017. But instead of responding to the call, the officers decided instead to spend around 20 minutes driving around the area hunting a Snorlax Pokémon in the popular mobile game Pokémon Go.

    One of the most common liberal clichés - who needs a gun. Just call the police.

    as for guns

    there are risks to owning one, and risks to not owning one, you have to decide for yourself

    I have never owned a gun in my life, but if I lived in a secluded area out in the middle of no where, I would

    I weigh the risks and decide

    yep, that is one of the risks of not owning a gun

    you counter that with the risks of owning a gun

    Cops hunting a snorlax fall into that category. While you and I will hopefully never see a crime scene, cops see them on a regular basis and are overwhelmingly in favor of armed citizens. There is zero risk owning a gun. Ignorance carries the highest risk.

    The left doesn't want to defund just BAD cops... they want to defund police DEPARTMENTS... that's ALL cops.

    most cops do not want citizens carrying guns in public

    in fact, cops spoke out when cell phone cases that looked like real guns came on the scene

    well, if they kill someone.... they want to see a gun after the fact maybe

    they did, but they also explained what they meant

    I do agree was a bad choice of words

    wackos haven't been rioting, burning and screaming to defund cops? Good luck with that. You'll have to find someone living on a desert island to believe that.

    • 91 percent support the concealed carry of firearms by civilians who have not been convicted of a felony and/or have not been deemed psychologically incapable
    • Likewise, 80 percent feel that legally-armed citizens would likely have reduced the number of casualties in recent mass shooting incidents"

    even republican GOP conventions were gun free zones

    heck

    "Donald Trump Is Against 'Gun-Free Zones' But Guns Aren't Allowed on Many of His Properties, Staff Says"

    https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/don...nes-guns-allowed-properties/story?id=39266544

    "Donald Trump spoke in favor of gun rights at the National Rifle Association convention today, but security and staff at several of his prized hotels and golf courses told ABC News that guests are not allowed to carry guns there."

    No, because the Secret Service doesn't care about your rights and have no sense of humor.

    • 91 percent support the concealed carry of firearms by civilians who have not been convicted of a felony and/or have not been deemed psychologically incapable
    • Likewise, 80 percent feel that legally-armed citizens would likely have reduced the number of casualties in recent mass shooting incidents

    cops may support people carrying guns, but they sure don't want anyone to have one when they pull them over

    if they see a gun, it could get ugly
