Police Arrogance

I'll start off by saying that I do not believe that all police/FBI/DEA are arrogant fools. In fact I believe that many are a shining example of the best type of person that an individual can be, and I believe that most of them are at least decent people. But one bad apple spoils the whole bunch.

In this video, a DEA (Federal drug enforcement) agent shoots himself in the leg. Even though there is an element of humor in this video, I find it more outraging than funny. Why THIS guy is teaching "gun safety" to kids is beyond me. But there is one thing that really gets me. Just before he shoots himself, he says "I am the only one in this room professional enough, that I know of, to carry this Glock .40." He then immediately shoots his own leg. Funny? A bit, but what business does the federal government (I'd be just as mad at a state government for this one) have teaching our kids that the only ones that should have guns is the government? I certainly don't want to trust my life to people like this. It's guys like this, and this type of arrogance, that "spoils the whole bunch."

Here is the link to the video:

Stay tuned for my analysis on the 2nd Amendment directly disputing this guy's claim that "[he] is the only one professional enough" to carry a gun, even if he hadn't shot himself. I'll do that by the end of the month.
