Yep. Just what we need.
So, let’s say, just for the sake of argument, (of course),that I’m in a bar, and an off duty policeman his just finished his one beer when a shooter comes in.
Oh me! Oh my! What to do?
I hastily hand my entire wallet to the off duty policeman and say “Here is my hit payment to you! Now shoot the SOB before he shoots me!”
Yep. Probably not Constitutional at all.
What would we do without the Courts?
Fascinating suppositions:
1) You suppose that in that scenario, it is the responsibility of the government employee to provide you with protection, and not *your* responsibility to draw on the bad guy (along with every other conservative in the establishment.
2) You suppose that said officer will be legally drunk after one beer. If that is the case for that particular officer, then he should not be in the bar, drinking one beer, while on duty.
