I  learned that there were something on the order of 200 shots fired during that  firefight.

Think  about that for just a moment.  It took a dozen or more cops, who are  trained professionals, who practice on at  least a weekly basis with their firearms, to fire 200 rounds before he finally  died.

Yet  our politicians (at least here in New York, and some in Washington -- as well as  other places, I'm sure) are saying that the most anyone needs to have  to protect himself from armed intruders is seven rounds in the  magazine.

Only  seven?!

Of  course, it took trained police, who were not dealing with an unexpected attack,  who were not roused from a peaceful slumber, who were not worried about their  wives and kids, some 200 rounds to kill one dangerous man.

Makes  you wonder if those politicians have even the slightest, tiniest hint of  anything connected with the real world,  doesn't it?
