TAKE GUNS AWAY FROM COPS

It's astonishing what you can find in some dark corners of some oblique sections of some decadent newspapers, but here's a jewel:  The DAILY SIGNAL reports that concealed-carry permit holders are essentially the most law-abiding demographic of Americans, "a new report by the Crime Prevention Research Center says—comparing the permit holders foremost with police."  Ain't that enough to frost the gizzard on a lizard? 


“We find that permit holders are convicted of misdemeanors and felonies at less than a sixth the rate for police officers,” the report says. “Among police, firearms violations occur at a rate of 16.5 per 100,000 officers. Among permit holders in Florida and Texas, the rate is only 2.4 per 100,000.10. That is just one-seventh of the rate for police officers.”

The conclusion is obvious: we need to take guns away from cops.
