Bad guy gets an AK, cop get's a little 9 mm glock.

I think they have every right to beef up their arms to protect themselves.

But does a standard cop need an M4 to patrol the streets? Whats wrong with calling in special units to stop heavily armed criminals? In the UK, the standard cop doesn't even carry a gun.

You don't say?

I never said that I was in support of disarming cops in the US.

Cops don't patrol the streets with M4s. They have them in their cars if they need them. If you're getting your info from a clearly one-sided, extremely biased youtube video, you're really not letting yourself see the whole picture.

To be honest, I skimmed the video. I see the whole picture. Just the way you posted your previous post led me to believe that you were in favor of cops patroling the streets with Assault Rifles. My mistake. I'm pretty sure that most cops have shotguns in their cars. Granted I did not research this, so forgive me if I'm wrong.

[QUOTE="22Toothpicks"] Yes they do. AKs and other automatic weapons are fairly common and easy to get a hold of.MetallicaKings

I can't even count the amount of times I've been mugged by someone holding an AK-47......................

It's a post, not a thread. And I'm dead serious. I mean, where I live, criminals just carry Ak's like a rebel village in Africa.

cops have weapons because bad guys have weapons.

Can someone tell me how they like my sig, please.

I think all modern vehicles have microchip ECUs, so I assume any automobile would go haywire if the chip died.F1_2004

no. Its a hypothetical situation.

We survived i-dont-know-how-many thousands of years without it. F1_2004

true but in todays day and age, we are so much more reliant on technology.

So, all internet and cellphone related technoligies have stopped working and cannot be restored until at least 5 years. My question is, Do you personally believe that society would be able to function or not?
