We're the Only Ones Disarmed Enough

One of the robbers managed to wrestle the gun away from the officer. The suspect then allegedly used the officer's gun to steal a getaway car, while another drove away in another vehicle. [More]
So much for "verbal judo."

I suppose the argument would be if they can do this to a "trained professional," we'd better make sure you're disarmed... 


You know what would stop that? Nonexistent "smart gun" technology, initially funded for research specifically to reduce police "takeaway" incidents, and then morphed into a requirement for you and me with an exemption for them...

Sweet, the way that works...
