There are close to 50 deaths so far this year of LEO's that have been shot during domestic disturbance calls. Cite your source. I find this hard to believe. The "50" number is bullshit. From the FBI: In 2012 a TOTAL of 47 LEOs were feloniously killed, and only 2 of those were during a Domestic Disturbance call. Link According to preliminary statistics released today by the FBI, 47 law enforcement officers were feloniously killed in the line of duty in 2012. The total number of officers killed is 25 fewer than the 72 officers who died in 2011. By region, 22 officers were killed as a result of criminal acts that occurred in the South, eight officers in the West, six officers in the Northeast, five officers died due to incidents in the Midwest, and six officers were killed in the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. By circumstance, 12 officers died from injuries inflicted while investigating suspicious persons or circumstances, eight who died were conducting traffic pursuits or stops, five were engaged in tactical situations, and five officers were killed as a result of ambushes (four due to entrapment/premeditated situations and one during an unprovoked attack). Four officers’ deaths occurred as a result of answering disturbance calls (two of which were domestic disturbance calls) and three officers were transporting, handling, or maintaining custody of prisoners. Two of the fallen officers sustained fatal injuries during drug-related matters, two were attempting to make other arrests, and two were performing investigative activities. Two officers were responding to robberies in progress, one was responding to a burglary in progress, and one officer was killed as a result of handling a person with a mental illness. |

I have never once seized a gun that was legal. I do however want to know where the guns in the house are when I roll up to a call. From my own experience it's an officer safety thing. I want to know where the things that can hurt me are and where everybody is when I'm at a call. thats seems awful logical of you. Is it? All an officer has to know is that the people in the home are unarmed and there are no firearms in the immediate area. If everyone is in say the LR, he can see them and there aren't any guns around and no one is armed, he need not go searching thru the house to find firearms. |

I'm not a JBT, but my guess would be that they don't take the TV's and DVR's because they make poor weapons.

The problem isn't them asking if you have any, or even them possibly wanting to hold them temporarily while they're there. The problem is a lot of cops come up with devious and lame excuses to try and take them permanently.

It varies state to state. Some areas like in liberal states cops will literally lie and exaggerate shit about people or an incident just to have an excuse to take guns and not give them back. Some cops also like to pretend they rule the world wherever they go, and in domestic cases it probably isn't the smartest idea to walk into someone else's house and act like you own the place with a cocky attitude, but they do.

Meh. I remember the cops telling my stepfather to leave after I called them about him beating up my mom. They let him load up all of his guns and most(if not all) of my guns and then drive out of there drunk with a warning not to come back. Fortunately he didn't decide to come back and kill us later. I can certainly see why cops would take guns in certain situations. The cop is in charge and no one else. |

Any "assault" data on police officers is meaningless, because cops call anything assault and also charge people for assault when the person tries to protect themselves from being injured by police during detainment or arrest. Actually, no. And if it is like most places the assault only gets reported, no charges. Almost have to go to the hospital. |

I have never once seized a gun that was legal. I do however want to know where the guns in the house are when I roll up to a call. From my own experience it's an officer safety thing. I want to know where the things that can hurt me are and where everybody is when I'm at a call. View Quote This |

Easier to control people and the situation inside. Also you can put one person in one room with an officer and another person in a different room to interview them. You don't want to be in the yard airing folks dirty laundry out to the neighbors. You search the furniture where a peson will be seated. Gotcha. I forgot one. Line of sight. If the two players can't see each other less chance of one being intimidated or a shouting match getting started. |

No, what he said was that normally if there is no serious injuries the prosecutor will normally not pursue it. Or that charges are not normally filed without seriious injury. He is correct. |

Madison man charged with aggravated assault on police officer By Independent Press on October 29, 2013 at 2:11 PM http://www.nj.com/independentpress/index.ssf/2013/10/madison_man_charged_with_aggra.html MADISON — A local resident was charged with aggravated assault of a police officer and more after he allegedly pushed a police officer who tried to help him push his car into a gas station. According to police, at about 10:15 p.m. on Oct. 17, an officer saw a man, later identified as Jacob Locket III, 61, of Madison, driving his car in the area of Greenwood Avenue near Elmer Street. A few moments later, the officer saw the same man trying to push his car into the lot of a nearby gas station and went to help. When the officer got near Locket, he allegedly smelled alcohol on Locket’s breath and had him perform field sobriety tests. During the testing, Locket allegedly pushed the police officer. He was charged with aggravated assault on a police officer, driving while intoxicated, driving while intoxicated within 1,000 feet of a school zone, refusal to consent to a breath test, driving with a suspended license, uninsured vehicle, unregistered vehicle, failure to inspect, two counts of failure to exhibit documents, and careless driving. Bail was set at $2,500 and he was held in the Morris County Correctional Facility with a court appearance pending. Or this example: Conway man charged with four counts of aggravated assault of officer Link A Conway man has been charged with four counts of aggravated assault of a certified law enforcement officer after police say he spit on multiple officers following his involvement in a vehicle accident with a train. Police arrived on scene of an accident involving a train around 2:44 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of Tyler and Donaghey streets. |

Meh. I remember the cops telling my stepfather to leave after I called them about him beating up my mom. They let him load up all of his guns and most(if not all) of my guns and then drive out of there drunk with a warning not to come back. Fortunately he didn't decide to come back and kill us later. I can certainly see why cops would take guns in certain situations. The cop is in charge and no one else. Not inside MY house! |
