In March, PoliceOne conducted the most comprehensive survey ever of American law enforcement officers’ opinions on the topic gripping the nation's attention in recent weeks: gun control.

More than 15,000 verified law enforcement professionals took part in the survey, which aimed to bring together the thoughts and opinions of the only professional group devoted to limiting and defeating gun violence as part of their sworn responsibility.

When only cops have guns, it's called a "police state".

One salient point about the survey is that it was completed mostly by "line officers." Meaning those higher ups with political aspirations were a minority of the responses. So, the report is a much better  snapshot of what "real" cops think....

Very interesting.  I wonder if anyone from Hawaii participated?
