[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2039284, member: 3099"] When one gets their mind wrapped around this concept, that is when it gets reeeeeeeaaaaaalllllllllllly frustrating for both sides. I've had the below argument more than once with family and friends. Them: Claiming that LEOs [I]NEED[/I] 30round mags an evil AWs (which I agree wholeheartedly) but then they aren't evil AWs when the LEOs (or .mil) have them. Me: Where does a LEO/MIL [I]NEEDING[/I] a 30 round mag come from? It's for their own self defense right? Them: No $h!t Sherlock... Me: And just exactly how does his/her [I]NEEDS[/I] trump mine when it comes to me defending my life? Our LEOs are just citizens like the rest of us. My next door neighbor told me that and he was in charge of the OHP firearms training at the time. They "get it", why does the general public not "get it"? It's at this point the argument usually goes south quickly because they know they only have emotion to work with. [/QUOTE]
