(1,666 posts)You make the mistake of lumping all police into doing what you want done.
The police in the left-leaning Democratic cities would run with your powers hardcore. All would be affected, many those you consider Democratic voters.
Who wont be putting up with it in the cities? Rural, redneck AR-15 owners in the middle of a cornfield. Do you see many cornfields in San Francisco?
Do you know why? Because Rural, redneck AR-15 owners who also vote Trump tend to live in the cornfield and cow states where the police are made up of Rural, redneck AR-15 owners in the middle of cornfields. The same states that have already voiced not following any new federal gun laws.
So tell me again, your plan. Will you involve the military now? They are not allowed to do civilian police work. However, Im guessing (based on what Ive seen), youd want that little bit ignored as much as you want the 4th Amendment ignored.
