Not only do they have the potential to get themselves killed, but innocent people as well.

However, I do believe in their rights according to our constitution and I took an oath a long time ago to defend that right no matter of my personal feelings toward them. Just have to keep you eyes open all the time!
When I was sworn in on the job many years ago the first thing they told us was way too many folks pack a firearm and they walk ten feet tall. I've found that to be true all too many times over the years.
