It is irrelevant as to whether the criminals are better armed than the police or not, because the criminals don't prey on the police (or at least not primarily)...they prey on the unarmed citizenry. And I think we can all agree that the criminals are much better armed than "the people" of DC!
Just as CHO was not better armed than the police, only the students and faculity of VT. Ironically enough he didn't choose to attack the police.
And therein lies the real problem...

I understand that I am entering a conversation laced with sarcasm, in an attempt to point out a rather obvious and serious point. I'll take my chances with that...Stating the criminals are better armed was said as a joke in regards to the DC gun ban. Are they better armed?? Maybe they are. DC cannnot tell you for sure since they cannot catch a cold.
The topic of the police having unnecessary items has been discussed at length in several other threads.
The items mentioned here been mentioned before. Since they are being mentioned again.. I chose to agree that the police should not have them... :Sarcasm:
