8. police chiefs and DA's are entirely political
they are both (in most cases) appointed officials. therefore, they are not going to come out with policies contrary to the mayor etc. or risk getting canned.

IACP has often come out anti-RKBA. but IACP doesn't represent COPS. they represent CHIEFS.

they no more represent cops than a group of automaker CEO's represent assembly line workers.

i was hoping the legalization initiative would pass in nevada a few years back.
