@motherjones none of my business, but how can you stop police from being militarised when common citizens are allowed to own assault rifles?

@Mr_Spock@MotherJones the police are SUPPOSED to be serving the people. So why not reduce the ability to infringe on this fact. -
@jrasjr_8 it seems to me, looking from the outside, that the gun issue is cooking america from inside.@motherjones -
@Mr_Spock@MotherJones I could see this country lose 80% of it's weapons and be fine with it but police would still have the same mentality -
@jrasjr_8 I was just stating what seems logical to me. guns on the loose always cause a arms race.@motherjones -
@Mr_Spock@MotherJones but it's no race never was Police have armored vehicles driving down city streets because propaganda says they should -
@jrasjr_8 well, in a country where people can buy assault rifles, if I was a policeman, I would like an armoured car … please@motherjones -
@Mr_Spock@MotherJones if cops should drive armored vehicles for protection why shouldn't we ALL ? - 14 more replies
