    But you or I would be jailed in DC for using a firearm to prevent a theft.

    Yes, law enforcement has rights not available to private citizens.

    You are an inspiration. If I was running for mayor in a crime infested city I'd propose a program
    where every citizen who passed a firearms training class and a background check was given an unpaid position in law enforcement giving them these "rights" denied you and I.
    What a great idea!

    Private citizens wouldn't be entitled to qualified immunity. Also,
    paying to become a sheriff's deputy to make gun ownership easier has a
    long history although recent SCOTUS rulings made that moot.

    Get to it!

    There's also this, if you want to see what kind of genius has already
    thought of your idea:

    I deputize them all.

    Ownership is not what I had in mind.

    Why do you despise and demean black sheriffs?

    Still no immunity.

    I don't. I would mock anyone with the views stated.
