lol - if someone snatched a gun from a cop i would sure hope the cop next to him would shoot the guy who snatched the gun.

hey i am not trying to keep you from your guns, hell, if i had my way, i am sure a lot more people would be getting shot at.
i am not saying he did anything wrong nor am i judging his right to bring his gun around, i am only stating that they might have wanted to keep it away from the general public.
