Additionally, I dont care how stupid of a kid you are. If I saw half a dozen cops in front of a house, the last thing I would do is go in and steal stuff, lol, lame....ptsmith24 said:+1Dan H said:I think thats fake, It looks like the screen is spliced in the middle...

Agreed, most cops that I have encountered seemed to be decent people genuinely interested in increasing public security and safety. The real point is that it's unreasonable to expect a LEO to have some sort of supernatural power to predict when and where crimes will be committed, and it would be prohibitively expensive and highly undesirable to employ enough manpower to watch every second of our lives and to be ready to spiring into action at the first hint of trouble.Macktee said:Come on guys, they're a lot like firefighters.

Does anyone really believe LEOs wouldn't prevent crime if they could? Unfortunately, most of the time, they can't.

For those reasons, I do what I can to never urgently need their help.
Let me clarify. They do generally arrive after the fact. Why? Because there simply isn't enough LEO's to cover the beat. Their fault? Of course not.GeorgiaGlocker said:Generally speaking doesn't LE arrive on scene after the fact?
But you don't need to carry in a restaurant....cause...you know....you'd never see this guy again.tace said:Do you need to wonder why I carry?
You'd still have Congress to worry about.Adam5 said:No offense to any current or future LEOs, but if I trusted the police to prevent a crime from happening against me or my loved ones, I would not need to carry a gun.
I do not want to live in a world where we have so many LEOs that they are always there before the fact.GeorgiaGlocker said:They do generally arrive after the fact. Why? Because there simply isn't enough LEO's to cover the beat. Their fault? Of course not.
