If they want to get firearms off the street perhaps they’re first focus should be the police department – beginning with Bloomberg’s security detail.

If guns in the hands of the law-abiding are problematic because of possible theft – then shouldn’t the same rationale apply to the police?

They’re guns are out in the open all the time – inviting theft or worse, so maybe they would be safer without them.

Particularly the NYPD. In the recent (justified) shooting of a perp outside the Empire State Building, two cops fired 16 rounds, hit the perp and dropped him like a poleaxed steer, but also wounded 9 bystanders, 3 of them hit by actual bullets, the rest by fragments and possibly shrapnel from objects hit by bullets. But the cops were only EIGHT FEET, less than 3 yards, from the bad buy.

In the video, one cop appears not to even be aiming at the bad guy, but somewhere else entirely. Even Bloomie seemed to confirm that at a press conference last week, saying the police may have shot AT some individuals. That's what it looked like to me as well.
