SCOTUS has clearly ruled that the police have absolutely no duty to protect any citizen: they only react to crimes already committed, or in the process of being committed, and then to apprehend while protecting themselves: they have no duty to put their own lives in danger to protect anyone.
The author of this drivel suggests otherwise: the headline should read "...Police" instead of "...Protect".
Those, like the writer, who seek to disarm law-abiding citizens, removing their means of effective defense against criminal predators, merely aid and abet those criminals by doing so.
The firearm is a tool: nothing more. And so is the author of the opinion piece in the Seattle Times. |

When they sell firearms back to the public, the buyers have to go through a background test. They don't get them if they fail it!!!!!!!!!!!! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
