“I can’t imagine any use for bayonets in an urban setting,” stated Sen. Rand Paul to Senate Homeland Security Committee at a hearing last year.
“I can’t answer what a local police force would use a bayonet for,” Alan Estevez said.

He would too if it got him elected.

I agree with Paul here.
Police use sidearms,tasers,batons,body cameras,tear gas,sheilds,etc.etc….. call the national guard before it’s that bad..if they need military weapons that bayonets attach to???? In preparation for “hand to hand ” combat with bayonets???What does that say? ??maybe the gov. Will do away with a well regulated militia altogether with well armed and regulated police forces.
Does make you wonder.
