That is false. It is spin. Not only had the law been used against LEO's, but it had been used against LEO's in that very jurisdiction.

Thanks. I did not know that. Although I did look at those cases cited and those cops were engaged in heavily criminal activities (armed robbery, attempted murder, etc) and not just being stupid like these guys.

(Full disclosure: I didn’t reread 924). My understanding is that the statute is triggered when a gun is used in a crime of violence, meaning that a consideration of the severity of the violent crime is outside the purview of the statute.
