Omaha worried about us having guns??
OnTheFly:
I travel across the country and when I get a chance I speak with the law enforcement I meet. Two police officers I met in Tampa, FL knew what brand (Beretta) of firearm they were issued, but did not know what the model was. I'm not even sure they knew the caliber. When I asked them they said it was a "Beretta 40". So I assume it was 40S&W, but not sure they knew that.
My sister-in-law is an officer in a small town. She is probably the only officer on the force who actually cleans her firearm. The others let it fowl up so it will fail in some way. Then they can complain and get new side arms. I think they get to purchase the old issue for a small amount. They might sell them, or maybe they finally clean them and add it to their collection. I've been told that a surprising number of police departments do not have an SOP on cleaning there firearms. Hard to believe.

How much you want to bet that A) the officer will not be disciplined in any way and B) That if I discharged a shotgun inside a city building then refused responsibility and claimed it was due to the dangerous firearm, I wouldn't get the same courtesy as said officer. I'm not saying he should go to jail but certainly should be punished. Being stupid should have consequences.

unfortunatly, natural selection did not do it's job in this case.

And in the end this will go down as one more reason why guns are too dangerous for the general public to be trusted with.
