rushmc 23 #1 July 5, 2005 POLICE CHIEFS ONCE AGAIN STRONGLY SUPPORT RIGHT TO ARMS The National Association of Chiefs of Police (NACOP) has released its "17th Annual National Survey of Police Chiefs & Sheriffs," and the responses show, yet again, that our nation's law enforcement officers staunchly support our Right to Keep and Bear Arms. The survey was sent to more than 22,000 Chiefs of Police and Sheriffs, and represents a cross section of professional command officers involving every state in the country. According to a recent PHXnews.com article, NACOP asserts that " the public perception of how police view certain issues is based on media coverage, which is not necessarily accurate. When police chiefs and sheriffs are allowed to respond to poll questions anonymously, the politics may be removed from their answers." The survey's results certainly seem to reflect that contention. Among the highlights: 93.6% of the respondents supported civilian gun-ownership rights; 96% of the police chiefs and sheriffs believe criminals obtain firearms from illegal sources, and; 63.1% believe concealed-weapons permits would reduce violent crime Even though the media and anti-gun organizations frequently use politically-motivated, anti-gun police bureaucrats to promote their gun-ban message, the fact is that the vast majority of law enforcement officers reject this extremist, anti-gun agenda.

goose491 0 #2 July 5, 2005 Hey, I may not agree with many things I see in American culture. The right apparent responsibility to bare arms used to be one of them. Then I realised, NOT baring arms is newer as a concept then carrying. As human beings, forming part of each and every culture, we have always been armed. It has always been the norm to own and know how to operate a means of self-defence. I am of the mind that yes, everyone should be armed. Weather you take that to mean you should have a gun, or just be a ninja like me (lol). My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My first instinct was to make it more of a, you know, a poll. You know, something like: ----------------------------------------- Which side of the issure are you on?
