Guns-Guns-Guns

" And I -- such -- VW. Arterial. Us at this. I can assert that over yup I cannot figure out the -- distressed at this don't like guns even if their guns used to protect -- The residents. Of this great state. They don't trust the cops -- this is at least suspect -- Great. Public feed that has been committed while apparently there is because Governor Deval Patrick --"

" It says it's going to launch an investigation to find out why police departments are being given guns now it seems rather outrageous to them when they could be handed out to criminals. -- They could be. And you know there's two stories hit -- first of all just the the existence of the program it is as you pointed out. And away for the federal government to distribute surplus weapons weapons in the end no go no longer going to be used and in a particular division a unit. Two cities and towns all across the country it's not unique to Massachusetts. Police departments make application. For these weapons and they at least have them. Available should something crazy happened. Teleglobe is distressed enough about this because some of the regulations may have been violated and that's supposed to get more than. 12 guns for every ten offices should have some people have. Hit those numerical memorial there maybe the Israelis I -- to accept so that the guns can be doled out to more police have I think I think that's probably the only justification far. The global also seems to be distressed. By the fact that the general public in the particulate towns have not been notified so people in Belmont we're not aware that the Belmont department got. -- in a bunch of them all there's a quote from summoned."

" Is that Belmont. For what logical purpose do they need semiautomatic rifles in Belmont is just nobody is immune and is this a war zone Kevin the big wall around Belmont -- any bad guys from coming yet. And the electronic surveillance keeps weapons from coming in an in the vehicle on as if this of the current system public's right to know and a I don't think I would think it is better for the public not I think -- a matter of fact Todd. The general public I'll I'll I'll."

" Take a risky position yeah I'll offer -- voice on behalf of the general public I think I can do this the general public has an expectation. That the police always have more firepower than the bad guys and should have more firepower you don't have to advertise what have you certainly don't advertise where it's kept how many have been trained. But the general public would insist. That the police have more firepower can you imagine the situation if you found yourself if you found you police department out beyond the."

" Why and how well you mean I'm more firepower I think the community should probably have more fire power than its police department should itself. But that the fire to evade the police department should be equipped. To deal with what might come to -- on two way ever comes its way prep for."

" said no question about it and the notion that somehow rather. The public has a right to know. I could care less. What may have many known commissioner Davis have for the police or maybe I want to superior short but I want them to be able to respond. Adequately and appropriately to what end. So it really arguments for the public's right to know is that this reassuring. To know that communities. And their police departments have more weapons -- available this is more fire -- situation where it's better for everybody to be kept guessing. Sometimes keeping the general public a little bit in the dark tide is not a bad thing I know that violates supposedly every transparent could government prince spoke. The cops are pretty -- capable of we have civilian review would control of atop the system works it works pretty damn good now withstanding the globes gripe."

" The US military surplus program has provided over a thousand weapons to police departments in Massachusetts over the last fifteen years including. 486. Fully automatic M sixty machine guns. And 564. M fourteen semi automatic rifles according to. Records with held by state police but later provided to the Boston Globe are you upset nervous. Scared to think the year police department might have weapons powerful enough. To be able to. State go toe to toe with some bad -- 6172666. -- sixty Eric is in Quincy higher."

" 81 -- or -- but yet all hell I hate to met with the it doubled body what -- thought rivals and it and also wiped out the clock. And they had to go do what -- go to -- stop rifle that -- try to fight and Mac."

" Yeah I think ten top. Loretta then wait wait wait this state is actually on this -- Eric the police departments all across the state have been doing a pretty damn good job alone it's a global."

" The people. Some politicians. Total."

" All right thank you for clarify you got a point there at. Isn't really a paper summit some of the reporters apparently this debate the question is how many of these assault weapons as the globe stockpiling. To defend against -- to fight back against the and they against the union. -- WR --"

" Yeah I did not going to have to -- hybrids that I. Talk to eyesight there ready to try -- last. -- luck -- the apparent that -- and -- well I -- shocked and -- and military is partly ejection as well but how about -- but don't wind -- other factor is that big. Police departments -- from the annual appropriation. Oh we're gonna talk about can they have a but -- and public -- the right to know. Go back to. We're happy. It's only appropriate -- brocade is with the public had a right to know about Barack Obama's British certificates what John Kerry. Military record. They have no interest at."

" That he go thank you let your identity as usual after it got far too from the -- is six typically on point and Mattingly different perspective -- nice Mike Jim all your NASA WR kill Mike is a police officers says here I --"

" Good morning guys they don't -- and bought. My about it -- not qualified my apartment we -- what do we qualified about weapons you know I could never. There's so well. Well basically the Boston Globe once 15% or 20% from their workers. I have most of the debate about the same newspaper that they want just pick it up. That article without the last thirty years including the window that's about a 30% in Europe so. The other thing is you can't get enough weapons really bad people out."

" And that's. You know that that's the crux of this thing from our point of view is we've seen stories like it was just referenced the then LA situation a few years ago. Where you've got heavily armed people able to hold police at bay because police just lack the firepower. I don't see on what level having -- sounds fine a couple of high school kids have in my it's going to qualify right now right. Tomorrow that's -- I have tomorrow night. He pressed right up every morning professionally and say -- mighty anticipate I might run into a situation today which a couple of -- it's a hold on a couple of civilians complete hostage did brutal their intent on murder and mayhem he's got to be able to stop them."

" eyewitness said he you know we understand all those are Belmont subsequent plot from Democrats and Obama -- up pretty good. But I've got to access specific such renewable look at out of can look at -- around the -- opens up but unemployment that's. I still read -- society. Continues to -- direction it's going. No you -- be losing. Public security everything else will be just the simple there's a report of a back to catch it shocks people wondered about -- You bizarre beauty got reported automatic weapons -- no."

" You know this something you've never tried Mike I think that would work well those kinds of situations when you is a cop carry your handgun. Are faced with people bad guys who -- caring big -- ammunition I mean big munitions I would suggest bringing a lot of a boom box with. That plays John Lennon's a match -- And they will melt. They will melt just thinking about all the people sharing all the world will be too much for Atlantic -- he's got every ski boats to a flower in their gun. By the little media than it is going out to the range of grunt and a qualified you know hoping gets a couple of keys -- yeah. You -- He be doing a great running -- charges going to be commendation -- in New York that's NWR kill him like."

" I don't -- good morning. Good compacts would comment to -- guy -- the carpet -- from Belmont that you that yes about just an automatic weapons. You know it at least --"

" Why couldn't we why would we possibly need that in the town of Belmont he said."

" Right well meet people actually knew it that -- record weapon was stationed look at the definition. And actually that even a lot of hunting rifles be consistent -- back weapons. So it's not actually he -- just a buzzword -- by people who work and guns and."

" You -- semi automatic is designed to make them sound scary but in fact it's not."

" So I think people should educate themselves -- you know. What they've done Barnett probably work in action what they do so."

" Good point my thank you for making it 6172666868. Reducing further the story out you know. One of the colleges whose views and their assault weapons. For ceremonial purposes for the parade I know a great team isn't there live no web no no no -- areas that no not that it's a bowl season with -- next say Susan."

" Good morning it's really take a look at. Com are in support of the lapped car I caught hand. AM you know creating not to want all the 10 o'clock and I hate them all gun that they can check out. -- support act and to defend us and we'll get absolutely crazy. When something happens. I don't -- a politician I want to call a -- What."

" I I think the idea that will you alluded astounded to -- police being. Racing to a call. When they know that there they're going to face crazy people with a crazy firepower. Don't you want them to at least have the weapons available what I do now. The price to fill out some kind of application if there and a hot pursuit of somebody who's carrying machine guns. And you know have the weapons flown in from out of state or something it's crazy so this is a government program giving out retired military weaponry. To us cities and towns in Massachusetts so cops and -- you object to this 6172666. Seats succeed Thomas toxic CD WRKO."

" Take one of our talk one -- personality sprinkle -- your callers and stirred them succeed."

" The door was little dismayed today because. Police departments in Massachusetts are actually possession of guns. And then they find missiles carry a little -- how little a little bit worrisome and."

" That they're particularly aggrieved they seemed peeved to to be perfectly honest that. Some police departments have not inform the public so I'm gonna make my put a public service award if that's okay with you connect and there are particular honor on somebody. Here it goes up to Framingham police lieutenant. -- He likened community involvement in Iran's decisions. To public involvement in hospitals decisions on what type of how many stands to buy. This is a decision that belonged with police officials not a public myself master and he said I -- like this guy. Because he's not going for the politically correct wishy washy all the public has a right to know -- to say he's you know has no business if he ever thinks are running for politics as a cross -- this articulate what this quote but he's obviously good damn police officer of because he just says to. Nosy reporters and blocked many a business of the public's business where around were open for business and we're ready to protect the public."

" Certain -- never ending 6172666. Seats -- are you nervous about the idea. That cops might have the weapons they need to be able to fight off bad guys -- in Wakefield good morning your NWR KO."

" The morgue or a comment. I I certainly think that you have aspect of trading is very important we should trade commission shall we have the weapons. But furthermore in Wakefield we have a situation -- group -- Michael permit. That went into it what the policies bailed party spoke about this I didn't hear it but he slaughtered a co workers. Emotional quality result certainly have to write that automatic weapons or in the --"

" Well it's and I just right but it's a requirement today is --"

" Sure I shall we put more addicted quote. The first -- belt what do they had a situation like all by. Just as the police were in a proper response. To a situation like that if there were problems so."

" Belmont so like any other town it needs to be protected against the outrageous kind of thing that. You wouldn't expect to happen but certainly we've seen can happen -- you remember that McCormick determined it sure it was a horrible incidents he was a little rampage at work and let's be now. Just an ordinary civilian -- of them that the grieving family members were left behind would have a full inappropriate expectation. The police show up with the requisite fire Apollo. And no end it would be negligent to leave -- apps unable to do that at all on him early and Jackson WRKO hey Paul."

" Very active in there are really that you mention academic benefit if he wasn't able. Was he really gets you lot of -- and up but -- I'm -- to a prospect rip the carpet. Robert parker about -- it doesn't look we got a recipient it would but what they got -- the public got that bad get -- will won't you let OK you people that's. If you're going now that part that criminal."

" But it literally in arsenal so that's scary Paul I think that would work better I don't get the police departments have weaponry. That is equipped to match up against war criminals can get their hands on deal."

" Why why why I think they'd know but let's. A while to get it took of the book yet obviously the -- if you get. The ER -- you know Republican national gotten stuff like that but it's what we're weapons that they really want --"

" I think that have trouble getting the wreck was issue and threw one on nuclear weapons -- really do James a -- and accent that was your occupation employers would be useful and they're worried what we have via I danced."

" All I've got -- regards to pop bit they're. Police are very whose stated picked -- we don't really have a need to know what type of weapons. And yeah calling. I am against that because -- this all the oil aren't from. Are in order for get like cystic now become a citizen -- that turnout I have no criminal record high working out as a defense contractor. I have you -- I approved carry around thousands of dollars today. I in order to get a licensed to carry without restrictions now -- the township next to me and all around. -- issue those primary up to achieve complete it going to be sort aren't picky. About -- intake might like to defend myself away. Vietnam I think that we beat you know little bit doubt about explaining himself and be a little bit open about what they get for their own not star."

" I Ayers I understand your frustration or Second Amendment guy Todd night for the most pot I think a pretty good on that issue was fired you up respect them in -- that say got a lot of good reasons. But the police have a hired duty it's an affirmative duty. You don't -- not obliged to respond in to serve it to protect when that phone call comes you might do what. But they have to do it and it -- to say hey we're gonna go just you know drop by draws and let everybody know everything I -- lieutenant that -- with lieutenant chastity. None of the public's business will make the decision on what we own and what we bring to the fight. Yeah -- micromanaging. Come alive now."
