I just don't want to buy one for every officer on the street. In my opinion a few rifles for a city the size of B.A. is sufficient. I would be happy to pay for those rifles with my tax dollars, but I don't think they all need them, and I don't want to pay for all those rifles. If the officers want them and pay for them themselves I am all for it. I base my opinion on the fact that almost no officers ever fire a carbine in the line of duty. Very few statistically even fire their pistol. I would support more pistol training paid for by taxpayers. I feel that is where the need is and that type of training would be more useful. This is just my 2 cents and I expect many of you will disagree with me.</blockquote>
