Your average cop hates the fact Americans enjoy their 2A freedoms.
Confiscations, arrests, tickets whenever possible, searches, siezures...
For a millisecond this one knows what it’s like to be an “American.”
And once again everyone acts as if every cop is a hero...

You experience a different America than I do.

In the America I experience, the average cop approves of armed Americans and supports the Second Amendment.

Several surveys of police officers support that version of America.

As a former LEO I find your comment ignorant, insulting and, I assure you, absolutely WRONG.

I’m sure I’ve met many more cops than you have. And I can tell you that you are wrong. But that won’t matter to you. You’ll just go on being wrong.

“Your average cop hates the fact Americans enjoy their 2A freedoms.”

Here in Iowa there was a story of an older black woman who had shot a home intruder with her handgun.
The cops helped her reload the gun before they left her home.

The ones I know do support 2nd Amendment rights. They know the good folks will only use on the people who pose a threat.

I have repeatedly observed that Police at the patrol level are very supportive of second amendment rights.

Things change as one moves up in the management ranks, particularly in Democrat-controlled cities. Remember, "Police chiefs are appointed, Sheriffs are elected".

Democrat politicians are consistently opposed to the second amendment and relentlessly push for a disarmed citizenry. That is the direction they give to Police departments.

To find the average cop, how many tens of thousands of cops did you interview. Your animus and bias is showing. Did you get a ticket lately?

You're an idiot. Mr. GG2 had to draw down on two fleeing perps in our backyard a couple Saturdays ago. The cops were amazed. They loved it. 😆
