    The city councilman who proposed the law states that only law enforcement needs that kind of firepower, which makes me wonder when he thinks law enforcement would need that kind of firepower.

    Since law enforcement works for the elected officials (paramilitary), it comes as no surprise that those same elected officials believe that only "their" law enforcement should need that kind of firepower. Sort of resembles the argument made by celebrities with armed security about the rest of us not needing to be armed.

    I am not suggesting that many within law enforcement agree with this sentiment. It has been my experience and personal belief that we in law enforcement work for the People as defined in the US Constitution and not the other public servants elected by the People.

    If it is good for the goose it should be good for the gander. If the People can't be trusted with it, the government certainly can't be trusted with it. Just my opinion of course.

    I couldn't agree more and I have several friends in LE that agree with this statement.

    I've never met a single LEO who said different. I'm sure they're out there, but all the cops I've talked to about such issues find such "laws" deplorable. The main reason is they know criminals don't obey laws and these "laws" affect no one but honest citizens.
