Delete comment from: The War on Guns
"...the cops (sic) is there to protect the life of the citizen..." No he or she isn't. Learn a little law. The cop is there to enforce the law when a crime has been committed not to prevent crimes or protect citizens. That is a Supreme Court case decision and therefore the law. Anything else is wishful thinking. In this case, it appears that the driver made a mistake, the passenger made a mistake and the cop made a mistake. The difference is the cop's mistake could have killed somebody. If a person is going to use a gun he or she must be held to a higher standard of behavior. In general, cops aren't and that is wrong.
