One of the reasons LEO's become more anti-gun as they gain rank is because they become more political as they gain rank and as we know many politicians are anti-gun.
Many cops have mainly other cops as friends and they get the us against them mentality, (the same thing happens with other professions and in the military) the problem is the them is us, and the vast majority of us are not bad people but we are treated as bad. I feel some of the cops were arrogant and if they fear citizens legally caring CCW they need to find another profession.
The comments of some of the officers in the officer.com thread was very irritating, They don't see any reason to be upset because a legally carried weapon was taken away for only a few minutes and then given back, In my state their is no law that says I have to surrender my gun if I have a CCW, and after looking at some others I could find none that said you had to either, the Second amendment was even called outdated because we aren't fighting indians now. This is one of the reasons their is so much ditrust of the police which is to bad because their are many good cops out their.
