I hope that you never need a cop or a SWAT team to come to your assistance.

just for fun ... could you please give me an example of when I would want a swat team to come to my assistance ... or even a cop ...
40 years of livin' and not one call to the cops yet. In fact, I don't know anyone who has ever "needed" a SWAT team. But I guess it COULD happen...
I'll count on my own common sense and legally owned firearms to protect my ass, thank you.
That's the funniest comment I've read on Free Republic in a long time.
You see, quite a few of us; either because we're news junkies or through personal experience (AHEM!) have learned that cops have a new thing these days. If they show up for ANY reason, somebody is going to jail. It doesn't matter if you are 80 years old in a wheelchair, a 9 year-old who has drawn a picture of a gun at school, or a junior high school kid carrying a burrito that a nosy somebody thinks might be a weapon.
If you attract the attention of Law Enforcement, you are likely to be physically subdued, tasered, tear-gassed - maybe even shot, and then transported to the "Law Enforcement Center" (formerly known as jail) and incarcerated until somebody cares enough to raise sufficient hell to get you out. Then you will be deprived of a significant portion of your net worth (even if you are innocent) and wind up under the supervision of the criminal justice system forever.
The day I purposely alert law Enforcement to my whereabouts and identity, I need to be committed.
I have two grown children. Not too many years ago, I warned them to be careful and have a good time every time they left the house. Now, I tell them "Whatever you do, do not attract the attention of law enforcement".
I cannot imagine any circumstance or set of circumstances where I would need a cop or SWAT team to come to my "assistance".
