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, he certainly doesn’t understand why the Framers included the Second Amendment in the Constitution. Very little surprises me coming out of California anymore.
People need to throw him out of office. He is part of the problem with this country.
The ones causing the problems probably don’t own them legally anyway, so why pass more laws to keep honest people from protecting themselves??
Gun control is when you hit what you’re aiming at on the first shot! Damn communist bastards
Sounds like retirement is in order.
Then control the ones that are owned illegally instead of trying to restrict decent, law abiding American citizens from owning. History teaches us that when you disarm the citizens they spend their lives on their knees serving those with the guns. We have the second ammendment for a reason!
A voice of reason Scotty Morrison, thank you.
Maybe he is talking about the thugs with guns….I hope he is or he is an idiot
it’s California and TBT, nobody gives a chit about Calfornia which will implode very soon thanks to old Moonbeam’s leadership.
I guess the Chief believes that more gun control would solve San Jose’s gang problem.
