I carried a rifle and I have seen up close what happens when only one side is armed, I have seen what an over powered government can do and I have seen what happens when there is no government left, so spare me your liberal bias. I have yet to meet a racist American police officer. I have seen plenty of black racists pretending to be civil rights leaders. I have seen plenty of thugs the world would be better of with out, color had nothing to do with that, it seems to be more of a cultural problem. We will never have common ground, I am for erasing the threat, jails don't work. If you have a plan to save these violent thugs, then do so. Attempting to convince me these predators have some value especially over a leo will never work.
