As a retired LEO, Citizens are facing more. Law Enforcement is a primarily reactionary force. Something happens to a citizen and LEO responds. If LEO is a reactionary, responding option, shouldn't the front line, the citizen, be more prepared?

Eh, bizarre argument... that’s like saying the common citizen should carry more anti-fire equipment than the fire department, or that the average citizen should carry a stretcher and defibrillator to work.

I am not arguing against the 2nd amendment rights, I just think your argument is hasty and sloppy. Need a bulletproof argument - and we have that. It’s our constitution.

Don't worry. You don't need a fire extinguisher. Just sit around and watch it burn while waiting for the FD to show up.

Should we have more than they do? Every single human being should have a better equipped fire truck? A larger hose? More resistant suit? A better, more expensive respirator and a thicker boot? Every age group? You’re missing my point and assuming I’m anti-gun, which tells me you can’t read

You should definitely be allowed to have more than they do. If you want to spend the money on a better fire truck, why should that be restricted? As you're well aware, no one here is suggesting that every single human being should have a better fire truck.

Maybe I'm just bothered by their phrasing. I think our forefathers had access to warships and cannons, and the citizenry should as well. I think we're all more or less on the same page, I'm just pedantic.
