    Frankly I think you’re crazy so call me whatever

    Mass shooters already exist and I’d prefer a professional force be prepared to stop them.

    We disarm police and they lose the arms race, full stop. People will tribe up for protection, because all it takes is one psycho demanding that be status quo and it becomes that - check literally any developing nation for all the proof you need there. Living in a revenge-killing gang war zone is not my idea of a good time.

    Just Google “Haiti” and tell me my deeply purple state wont degrade to open conflict.

      Yeah, but the can have all the equipment they want and it doesn’t matter if they won’t go into situations (like, for example, an elementary school shooting) because they’re cowards.
