Why one cop carries 145 rounds of ammo on the job

It is a goal of his that he has been working to fulfill.

Who cares and how is anyone going to know?
I have reciepts for all of it, so call the cops and tell them there is a guy on line that says he as 8K rounds of ammo.
Guess what, it aint illegal.

 

Not sad for me, sad for everyone that didnt buy ammo last year when it was cheap.
Need to buy some? I may part with a few hundred for the right price.

 

Can you please point out the relevance of:

Once you find yourself in a circle of violence, it's difficult to break. Money is spent nott on education, but elsewhere, meaning the level of stupid in a country goes up, along with it violence and the circle becomes a spiral.

Perhaps you've spent too much time polishing your barrel and not enough time reading books and the like?

I neither have, nor need a gun. As I said (the part you seemed to ignore), I live in a place where the government does not spend this sort of money on weapons, because the population goes to school, gets jobs and has a good life.

 

Why not? Did he scare the libs here?

Just what is this nut talking about?

 

Cops are good guys with guns ... battling bad guys with guns who have 2nd Amendment Rights too.

 

Yes but they easily pass background checks ... wether at the local arms-dealers shows or thier from thier friends and moms.

 

Really? Criminals enjoy all of their constitutional rights? How are they imprisoned?

 

Um wrong again. Keep trying.
No crimnal bothers with a back ground check. Its actually a pretty accurate system. Lots of people get turned down.
I bet every gun in the story that the bad guy had, was stolen.

 

Then, why are the Democrats and Obama calling for more background checks? Just using dead kids to score political points?

It's no different than citizens who abuse their 1st Amendment rights to free speech or religion.

 

I have been stockpiling .22. Everyone is worried about governments or zombies. Let me tell you what he real menace is:
Squirrels.
The suckers eat nuts, swing from trees and then taunt me. Lil buggers don't know what is going to hit them one of these days...

 

Nice misdirection,, but the subject is not the criminal regime in the White House with a Black heart it is the need for the public to be able to fight back.

 

Clearly, they do not want to discuss NY's outrageously unconstitutional law.

 

I have an idea, seeing as so many people on here and most message boards hate cops.
Lets just have them disband all police depts and we as citizens will take care of the criminals ourselves. We will patrol our individual neighborhoods. Investigate crimes, find the bad guys and deliver them to the judges.

Maybe the fearfilled cop could retrain as an accountant or a librarian.

 

So the fact that he has already been in a vicious shootout with a man who was hell bent on killing him means nothing to you?
But you just wish to be keyboard commando and call him fearfull.
You ever pinned on a badge, a uniform or done anything for the betterment of your fellow man?

 

Well I do not. I appreciate the police and the job they do. My point is simply about American society being so violent. Why is this when compared to the rest of the West?

Contrary to your previous claim of being 50, it would seem that you inadvertently pressed the "0" key.

 

Why? He took out the trash with a head shot.

 

Yea, Iam 50. But to answer your question of why so much violence?
Could be a compounding of a few issues.
One we are not a homogenous society. We are a patch work of many races and cultures and beliefs.
We also have a huge gang problem, so when you hear of all these murders and shootings. The majority stem from the gang problem fueled by drugs.
We also have a fatherless child problem, kids growing up with with no father in the home. Young men having kids all over town and those children not being given any chance to grow up to be productive members of our society.
We also have an education problem in the fact that many parents have no involvement with thier childs education and seem to think the teachers are surrogate parents.
Add to the mix of violent video and movies on a daily ration, you have what we have.
It is what it is.

 

Whaat you describe is all too similar to other countries around the world, which do not have the American gun violence problem.

 

Like I said, it is what it is. But we are not giving up our guns. And since you dont live here, dont worry about it.

 

I mean don't get me wrong ... the Gun Control section of this website is always fun .... especially when it comes to Lapierre and your 2nd Amemdment rights ...

Here's a particularly lucid thread ... well, wacked or lucid ... it's all the same to conservatives ...
