Real Cops Versus Political
Cop Groups

Political Cop Groups

In the pivotal case before the Supreme Court, the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence prepared a brief supporting bans and undercutting the Second Amendment. Seven groups lent their names (and influence) to the Brady brief: International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP); Major Cities Chiefs; International Brotherhood of Police Officers, National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE); Hispanic American Police Command Officers Association; National Latino Peace Officers Association and the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF).

A dishonest media is helping drive the anti-gun frenzy. They enable the rabid anti-gunners to use a few police chief’s groups to convince America (and members of the Supreme Court and Congress) that cops hate the Second Amendment.

Real Cops

LEAA prepared an Amicus Brief to show rank-and-file law enforcement believes in self-defense and empowering good guys, equipped with the most effective tools, to fight back against murderers, robbers and rapists. We show those who wear a badge and have sworn to uphold the Constitution recognize, respect and even revere our Second Amendment.

We hope that our united LEO voices will help the nine members of the U.S. Supreme Court uphold the Second Amendment.

Remember, those who believe Gun Control IS Crime Control are the same people who don’t trust cops with guns; they’re the ones who don’t want you to be able to carry.

What they Really Want

When LEAA’s H.R. 218 / “National Concealed Carry for Cops” was before Congress, Sarah Brady and her Brady Center refused to support it; the IACP actively opposed it, going so far as to openly testify against it. They didn’t want cops — off-duty or retired — to be able to carry.

Michael K. Beard, of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, couldn’t have summed up the anti-gun folks beliefs any clearer when he said, “Well, certainly I don't trust the police more than the other person.” He stated, “I don't believe police officers with all of their training are any safer with their guns than we as private citizens.... if they're not safe with them, how are the next generation going to be safer with more guns."

It’s Our Choice

This November’s elections will feature a battle for our next President. Every single member of the House of Representatives (435) and one-third of those in the Senate will be up for election. The meaning of the Second Amendment and the push to outlaw more guns, gun shows, ammunition, etc., will be key ways to evaluate those who seek our vote.

If you’re sick and tired of watching the media misrepresent these issues then you need to get active. Register to vote, join LEAA and take a few like-minded people with you to vote in November.

The battle lines are drawn, gun haters along with some police groups don’t want anyone, civilian or LEO, to be protected by the Second Amendment. Only when cops stand together will the truth be told and the Second Amendment protected.
