New O’Keefe Video: Cops Say ‘You’re On Your Own’ Without Gun
pj Media ^ | March 6th, 2013 | J. Christian Adams

Posted on 03/08/2013 3:26:51 PM PST by NoGrayZone

James O’Keefe’s latest video shows the ugly truth: if you don’t own a gun, you are on your own. In the video, he goes into police stations (predominately in the anti-gun Northeast) and collects a shocking harvest of responses from officers about how the police have no ability to protect them.

Traffic and time prevent effective responses to 911 calls. O’Keefe’s undercover protagonist pushes the issue, “well, how am I supposed to protect my family if I don’t have a gun?”

“The fat cops sitting behind their desks munching donuts -—”

Ok, OK, Fat cops sitting in their Crown Vics, munching dognuts!
Now, does that make it better?

Yes, you did, this one did, that one did. These videos are for the mass.

Other people lurk here, and not just conservatives. It’s all a part of the new media.

Spread the info far and wide.

Actually, that’s a great idea. However, I wonder if it’s illegal, like screaming FIRE in a movie theater.

The girl cops are the worst of them, for anything! I have no idea what they are trying to prove but they are rude and unseemly.

Fine, I only had 1 instance with a girl cop (my brake light was out). She gave me the ticket. I had the usual 1 business day to fix it, go to the station, show it was fixed, get the paper work filled out and send it in, which I did (the cop at the desk waved a “nah” hand at me when I asked him to check out my fixed brake light).

I had some kind of breach in my brake light cover which would short out my brake light. I was pulled over before for the same thing, and the 2 guy cops were very nice about it, let me go (I promised to get it fixed right then and there, or the next day, when my mechanic was open).

They did warn me that they patrol the area so don’t let them see me w/ out a brake light or I would get a ticket.

Of course I got it fixed asap. It’s no fun being pulled over by the fuzz!

The one thing I didn’t understand is the black lady cop. She said she applied for hers and it took about 3 months, if my memory serves me correct.

However, shouldn’t she already be carrying a handgun? She’s already armed. Then she starts talking about getting bleach, ammonia, etc.

I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t keep those things in my bedroom, if that is where I was “trapped”.

I am sure it isn’t legal, but if it saves your life it’s worth it.

Goldenpup didn’t sound uppity to me, sounded very logical as a matter of fact.

“I don’t keep those things in my bedroom, if that is where I was “trapped”.”

Right now I have something that was mysteriously lost in a tragic boating accident, my choice of clubs, (I recommend the 5 iron), a screwdriver, both bleach and ammonia.

They all just recently came in handy and the perp is in jail. End result - cracked a toenail. :)

Damn those boating accidents! Sorry to hear about your toenail though.

I pray for your quick recovery! =)

For shame. Now you’ll have to say an hour of ‘Praise Chavez’ to atone for your sins.

Police have no mandate to “protect” anyone. They exist to detain and/or arrest perps during or after a crime.
