How can 2nd Amendment and Armed police exist together?

How can they not? The US can't keep illegal aliens out, which means they have no way to keep guns out, thus no way to disarm people even if they wanted to. Outlawing guns would make the gun trade far more lucrative, than even the drug trade.
Even if they managed to convince people to give up their guns willingly, they'd merely be victims when someone with a illegal gun attacks them.
Which means, law abiding citizens would be totally defenseless when a gun toting criminal decides to come rape, rob or kill them.
A lot more people would die if guns were outlawed than we have now. As what am I suppose to do while I wait over an hour for police to show up and when a criminal is shooting at me, breaking down my door?
Kindly asking them to wait for the police is not an option.
Police have no legal obligation to protect anyone.
There are changes that should happen, such as no more no knock warrants. Better to just knock at the door and wait, if they are worried suspect could flee through the back, have other officers ready before knocking. As yelling POLICE while kicking down the door isn't understandable.
Someone has to get my attention first before I can understand what they are saying, random yelling is gobbly goo until they have my attention.
They also need better training that says you cannot shoot someone without a weapon pointed at you. Unarmed people or those with guns are not a threat until it is pointed at someone.
Suicide by cop is often something men do when they want to die but can't do it themselves... simply point a empty gun at the police.
This officer did not follow training, cause if training is drop your gun, bang... that is pretty bad training.
We have to keep in mind though, there are many great police forces out there and many terrible ones too. They are not all the same.
They can coexist. We just need some changes…better training for cops, more recruitment within communities so you don’t have all white cops policing minority populations and change civil service protections to give police brass better ability to fire bad apples within their ranks. This defunding nonsense is never going to get us anywhere so you embrace some incremental changes that directly address the problem.
Common sense has gone right out the window on both sides. The left wants to defund out of some sense of punitive retribution and isn’t considering the consequences. The right is perfectly happy with the unequal treatment and resists any attempt at needed reform. I don’t know when compromise became a dirty word but it’s killing our country.
Start the video at 5:30
I was about to hop on the police are evil bandwagon but I'm glad I looked up the video first. This guy was definitely on drugs or something.
The cop reacted too quickly but you can't totally blame the cop. He should feel remorse for letting his adrenaline get the best of him because literally a second before he saw the guy he heard gunshots.
The cop should be given a job where he doesn't have a gun. He can't handle the position he was given.
If anyone is to blame its his superiors.
Because we have the right to defend ourselves even against the police when our rights are being violated. This includes the police. Imagine if the police could come into your house rip you off your couch and take you to a camp for having Covid. Which is happening in China right now.
Sure, we all live by the Ten Commandments and then defund the police. Some if your an atheist mean nothing to you. But I’m sure we can all agree don’t murder don’t steal honor your father and mother (even though it has religious purposes we all need a day off in a week so keep the Sabbath by keeping it holy). Don’t cheat on your wife or husband and don’t covet (covered is kind of a complicated one but it’s easy to understand, For example I think you have a amazing dog and I want your dog not just one of the same breed but that specific dog. So I steal your dog. That’s coveting. There is a different between copying you vs stealing what you have (also fuck English for having two different spellings of steel steal wtf) grammar I’m a dumbass at

The United States Constitution is for a moral people. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other -John Adams
That's the problem with you people -- you think "I was robbing a convenience store -- I'm a victim." No, the victim is the man who put his life savings into starting that convenient store and wasn't looking for an easy way out.
Why wouldn't they exist together? It gives each group people to shoot at.
this really disturbed me. and it's a good reason to not call the cops. i see the caller at fault and the police as well
i fucking hate austin police. they are dicks
i'm all for defunding the police until they can do their jobs like this isn't Afghanistan
you got me watching the body cam and then i started watching the uvalde shooting body cams. and i rabbit holed. but i found out it took 376 officers to take down that one kid in over and hour
No they aren’t. But ok, if you think they can’t exist together, then lets disarm the police.
I didn’t say defund them. but if you’re making us choose, the government loses.
Dummy, this is your proposal that one of the two groups is disarmed, not mine. So if one of the two need guns taken away, it’s the police.
No, why would I want to do stupid fucking leftist ideas? End qualified immunity, prosecution for any cop who turns off his body camera, and civil forfeiture laws. You know, things that actually help spread freedom, not more stupid laws that enable criminals.
Lots of kevlar.
The police need to chill the fuck out.
