Recent California Horror story..True!

This direction is nothing new, just hasn't come up here before. It has shifted from California State law enforcement that obviously legally confisticated firearms (as did the legal authority in Germany in 1938) and possible remedies to an attack on police who may or may not have taken weapons illegally. Then follows the situations presented of perceived illegal actions and righteous defense by those who deny it would happen. What it shows me is a basic distrust that many gunowners have of law enforcement.The common links are the same: firearms, protection, law and order, defense of home and property. But the the flash point is that one group has the authority to control the other based on laws which are not seeen as legitimate. Law enforcement sees a man with a gun as a threat to society and and person. Disturbing part is that many gunowners are seeing law enforcement as the same.
