    Default Survey of Police Officers Views on Gun Laws

    hey yinz...

    i was googling to find some completely unrelated information and stumbled across this survey from 1997 of police officers in lehigh and north hampton counties:

    http://www.tysknews.com/Depts/2nd_Am.../gun_study.htm

    it was from a long time ago...and was only given to officers in two counties...and only had a 56% response rate...

    so, i'm not sure it is really good for anything, but it is still interesting and i thought some of yinz might like to read it.

    enjoy.

    Very cool. I only wish that more of them had a concept of the meanings of Article 1 Section 21 of the Pa. Const. and the US Constitution in general.

    Excellent Find LRT, now if the philly legislators could just get.

    To bad there is not a similar survey of all the Philly police officers, It sure would open some eyes in Harrisburg.
