The fact that a thug can file a lawsuit against LEO’S in the defense of self/the performance of their duties, you see where society went wrong. The fact that any LEO is discouraged from carrying a firearm is a disgrace. Not only are they sacrificing their own safety but they endanger the public by virtue of the fact they are unarmed.... 22618@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Tue, 30 Oct 2007 09:29:21 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_SN_1235.html#22562 I am in favor of this bill. As a federal correctional officer, I personally do not foresee the need for myself to carry a firearm off duty, but I live in a rural area that has a very low crime rate. After seeing on newsclips the things that DO occur with officers in metropolitan areas, I am glad that this bill has come to light.... 22562@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 28 Oct 2007 14:16:29 EDT
