Yep...the majority of cops understand that they can't be everywhere all the time...so you are on your own most of the time when a criminal attacks you.....
Pew: Police Support Gun Rights over Gun Control by 3 to 1 Margin
The survey also shows that two out of three officers oppose an “assault weapons” ban.
According to Pew, 74 percent of officers believe it most important to “protect the right of Americans to own guns,” while 25 percent want greater efforts to “control gun ownership.” Among the public at large, 53 percent believe it most important to “protect the right of American to own guns,” and 46 percent want greater efforts to “control gun ownership.” This means the law enforcement officers, who put their lives on the line daily, have an even greater appreciation for citizens’ Second Amendment rights than do the citizens themselves.
Pew also points out that 67 percent of officers oppose a ban on “assault weapons.”
This is crucial information, considering the Obama administration appealed to police safety when pushing bans on “assault weapons” and certain types of ammunition for those weapons.
