For Americans who support law enforcement and trust them to safeguard both their liberties and their well-being, it is disheartening to hear officers say that the way to protect the latter is by curtailing the former.
San Jose Police Chief Eddie Garcia is one such officer, as he revealed in an interview with San Jose Inside. Asked about the topics of the day, Garcia not only expressed support for the controversial Black Lives Matter movement, but also voiced opposition to laws allowing Americans to own firearms for their protection.
As one might be wont to point out, a majority of law enforcement officers believe that Americans should retain the right to bear arms, meaning that Garcia is clearly in the minority on the issue. However, his position as chief of police for the 10th largest city in the country means that his opinion will carry weight among the uninformed and be cited by liberals as support for their anti-gun agenda.

David Day Thanks, David, but I really did know the reasoning behind the 2nd Amendment.
Mike Romanowicz Well, it seems to me that if I believe in people owning guns that is the same as the RIGHT to own guns for self-protection. Let’s not make this a case of semantics here.
California DESERVES YOU!
the chief is a$#%&!@* Just like Blm
Cut the guy some slack folks. Like a lot of people he simply didnt know of all the facts and details surrounding firearms and firearms law. I give him a lot of credit for actually reading and wanting to learn as opposed to getting “triggered” flying off the handle, calling me an nra terrorist, and wanting to shoot me all in the same sentence (ironic isn’t it? Yep that happened on nbc’s page) Most of us want the same thing. Keeping bad people from doing bad things. We just have different ideas of going about it. Unfortunately there’s an enormous amount of myths, lies, and disinformation propagated by the mainstream media and most people are unable to sift though all the bs and get to the truth of the matter. I’m a gunsmith in my spare time so I have to know this stuff by heart because the slightest slip up on my part, no matter how stupid and insignificant, can land me huge fines and very lengthy prison time.
Idiot.
He’s from California…
Nuff said.
He’s probably setting himself up for politics or a political handout
