just because it is police or military don't mean everything is roses. and btw public couldnt have guns with Stalin or Hitler. that is why so many were slaughtered in their own homeland.

A well armed public could stop the next Hitler.

and another history lesson, Every nation on earth is afraid of the thought of invading the United States, why? because the public is ARMED.
We fear the USAs defense force not the people. Largest military in the world and so it should be. If America didn't have a huge military then everyone would be in trouble.

look at all the mass genocides and a good 70-75% of them were inflicted by the govt on UNARMED people.
I would bet it's closer to 95% than 75%.

Very few governments can carry out a hostile takeover of an armed populace. It usually becomes very bloody and painful, drawn out over a long time....

Look at our civil war...

I'm pleased with you to actually consider an opposing view point even when people resorted to childish antics and personal attacks. For being only 19, you've shown great maturity to not fire back in the manner some of them responded to you for having a different opinion.

This is the purpose of positive communication in a forum. To discuss, as brothers and sisters in Christ, having different beliefs and perceptions, and learning from each other. If successful, we can have a brother or sister in Christ change their opinion/belief as you have. :)

You're probably right, I don't know the full statistics of it, but governments are the number one killer of humankind.....
defined as Democide.

The long trail of blood at the hands of governments/rulers starting with nimrod, to nero, to hitler to the present, is just astonishing.... my guess is may be over the course of the whole earth's existence at least 3-5 trillion or more people have been executed by governments usually on false pretenses....

I agree with the other posters, despite some harsh comments towards you, you kept a positive demeanor and showed alot of maturity and restraint. I applaud you for it! Bravo!

Remember to always question everything in life.....it makes you think more. Never take anything at face value always decide for yourself! :) God Bless!

We cant determine anything from the video. Cop says he has a gun and that is when the officer responded to that. Can't tell if the suspect was going for the gun or not.
Also if you are a violent felon then it might not be a good idea to be on the grocery store parking lot carrying a gun

That's actually a very good idea/suggestion!....keep a drone in your car and pull over people and send the drone out to collect the license/registration etc. It would prevent misunderstandings/potential violence between LEO's and civilians.

Actually in some applications they are....the technology is already out there in the military to do it....have a drone with a gun on it and they used a similar type of weapon in dallas via a robot ( a type of drone you could say) to bomb the sniper guy.
