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.

Well this guy is a complete idiot
As a government representative, he fails to comprehend that individuals like him are the exact reason our forefathers wrote the second amendment. To protect our rights to defend ourselves that are inherent to our humanity. Not given by, but guaranteed through the constitution.
My fear is that his bad karma will catch up to one of the unlucky officers who have to work for this idiot.
Dumb ass
His statements only prove he is absolutely not a law enforcement officer. He is a wanna be Democrat politician who has temporarily donned a police uniform.
The Joe Isuzu smile is the give away
He is an idiot! Gun control does NOT work!
Thomas Breshears, I disagree with him after reading the article. Not because I don’t think black lives also matter, but because if you talk to BLM leadership it becomes clear that they believe ONLY black lives matter. He states that is not the case but it comes from their own mouths.
Also, out of literally millions of incidents where police arrive to find a good guy holding a gun, the good guy getting shot has only happened tens of times. Sad that it happened at all but that is an amazingly good average. The scenario you mention just isn’t likely.
Did you ever here of prohibition Mr. police chief?
Snowflakes ❄️ nuff said
And who’s going to protect his$#%&!@*if he’s wounded and can’t shoot back. He’d be happy if someone showed up with a gun to help.
