A CBS News investigation found dozens of law enforcement leaders — sheriffs, captains, lieutenants, chiefs of police — buying and illegally selling firearms, even weapons of war, across 23 U.S. states, Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., from the Deep South to the Midwest, Northeast and California coast.
I just want to end armed policing at this point. The whole argument about criminals being well armed holds no water when the police are the ones that armed them.
Governments often arm the enemy to justify their own existence.
Can we get rid of armed policing yet?
Rules for thee and not for me.
My favorite parts are where the first guy says if he’s guilty then so are all cops. Then the feds guy says they like to educate, not charge and these officers just don’t understand this is like a straw purchase.
In reality it’s not like a straw purchase, it is exactly that. One of the biggest indicators of corruption is government officials and soldiers selling their weapons on the black market.
Ohh, is it another day ending in y?

If I’m guilty of this, every cop in the nation’s going to jail
That’s not as convincing as he wants it to be.
Edit: holy hell, everything in that article is infuriating.
