Fact is, if this survey contains any truth, they are our friends. In particular, they are friends of the 2A.

They always have been. They know the nuts and bolts of crime and response time, and they understand the
practical reality. Even if they're not big supporters of the 2A in general, they support the idea of an armed citizenry.
The disconnect comes with the top brass, who are more concerned with
political reality. Sheriffs are elected, and you'll find them generally more in touch with their constituents, but chiefs are a whole matter altogether. The unfortunate thing is that the chiefs are the ones politicians talk to, and they're the ones on the news when the policy questions are asked.
