So when the government agent demands you DROP THE GUN, is that Constitutional?
How do you feel about them killing someone if they refuse?

Good guns are expensive--I know--and dropping them can damage them.
Hell, they could even discharge.
It's an unreasonable request from that perspective.
"Gently place your firearm on the ground" is the correct command.

Anybody who's been around long enough to compare knows that compared to the tough old timers, modern cops are pussies.
The cops that I dealt with as a kid would be truly ashamed.
They didn't draw their sidearms unless it was specifically to shoot you, which almost never happened.
They didn't draw their sidearms because they were afraid of getting their asses kicked like the cops today.
It's gotten unbelievable, now.
How did that twig Chauvin ever become a cop?
My daughter, about his age, would kiss his ass sideways without breaking a sweat.

All true. But in the old days cops werent sued for looking at you funny or grabbing your arm a little hard when they slapped the cuffs on. They would also jack you in the jaw at the drop of a hat too, and had no problem using the blackjack on you if things got out of hand. The more society takes those things away from cops the more they rely on the gun.

Exactly. When I grew up the cops were pretty cool with people as long as you were a stand up guy and not some asshole or hardened criminal. They would cut you slack on the small stuff. But be an asshole and they would have no problem dropping an ass kicking on you...LOL Just a different world back then. Better in a lot of ways.

A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

Honestly counselor, don't they miss you at the ticket clinic? All those poor souls with their speeding tickets and the dreaded "rolling stop" citation? You could help SOOOO many people! Don't you remember the thrill of beating the "uncalibrated radar gun" ticket? Get back to work! Your clients need you!
