the guys on the left, with their quaint service revolvers are in no way imaginable a match for today's bad guys.

the guys on the left responded to Whitman in 1966. martinez fired all 6 rounds of his service revolver from a distance of 50 feet and missed with all 6. You cant go after a sniper with a 6 shooter. Have any of you realized that the attempted hysteria that is constantly stirred up on DU about "militarized" police...is the exact same thing the gun nuts are screaming about?
