That's... silly. I carry a gun, too, but I don't go around arbitrarily forcing my will on others. The difference is "qualified immunity", not weaponry.

- wnoise 6y agoQualified immunity only matters for civil suits under 42 USC 1983. Cops ultimately aren't disciplined because there's no political will. And there's no consequences on the ground because they have more weapons, and importantly ready backup from other cops. If you were in a gang, and carried a gun, you could indeed arbitrarily force your will on others for some time.
