Why does it feel like nobody thinks that there are criminals out there? Violent offenders walking amongst us and they're not going to stop. Take the police ability to protect themselves away and they're going to quit. Then who's going to deal with these people.

That IS cops.
This is semantics.
I want cops on the streets.
Good cops.
Not overworked cops.
Not militarized cops.
Just cops who practice the 8.
