Problem is, the Democrat Party desperately wants to impose this nationwide. They did it with Obamacare and won't have an issue making criminals out of all of us.
For them, it's a twofer. It imprisons millions of conservative voters, enabling them to win more elections, plus it enfeebles our ability to physically resist them should it come to a shooting situation.
The Bergen County prosecutor put out a memo recently that says off-dutyLEOs are no longer allowed to carry "high capacity magazines" and are subject to arrest. I would imagine the same goes for retired. So, you got that equality you were wanting.
True equality would be everyone has to use 10 rounders, even on duty officers.
LE shouldn't have extra rights.
I'm comforted to see that you would rather have rights taken away from some than given to all.

What would be need or reasoning for certain classes of citizens that work in LE to have extra rights over all other citizens?
I don't believe LE should have "extra rights." But I would rather those "extra rights" be given to everyone than taken away from LE. Contrary to your personal feelings about LE, the vast majority of us don't want to see rights taken away form anyone, especially law-abiding citizens.What would be need or reasoning for certain classes of citizens that work in LE to have extra rights over all other citizens?
I think he would just rather not have rights for some, and not for all.
I could be wrong, but maybe he wants us to have the same rights... as in there being no silly limit of 10.
Which, I bet in 10 years there will be motions to decrease it to some lesser number.
And grenade launchers, and tanks, and night vision, and Predator drones. What makes them so special that I can't have all that?Police carry and use of firearms has nothing to do with their "rights." It has to do with their statutory authority.
I strongly favor no magazine capacity restrictions for anybody, but this question is about as silly as asking why certain classes of citizens in the military have special "rights" to have automatic weapons.
I believe non-LE should have the same rights as LE when it comes to weapons. But taking those rights away from LE aren't going to do anything to give them to non-LE.
