Actor David Spade, after hearing (on Fox News) about his hometown Police Department’s cops begging to spend their OWN money to buy AR-15s to counter being outgunned in the streets by thugs and criminals, stepped up and said “that’s B.S.!” (Well, those are my words, but I’m sure he felt sorta the same.)
The cops were told ‘no’ by the Department, but Spade was having none of it. Today he presented the Phoenix Police Department with a check for $100,000 to go directly toward the gun fund to buy these officers the AR-15s they wanted and NEEDED. The PPD cops were basically taking slingshots to a gunfight, what with their use of limited-power handguns against the bad guys’ automatic weapons. This was a thin blue line that needed protecting, and I’m proud to say there is one decent soul in Hollywood who stepped up to the plate and made things right.
I’m not sure how the PD’s minds were changed as to whether or not the cops could have these rifles, but I’m sure the publicity didn’t hurt any. After all, these cops were asking to buy the guns with their own money! WTF?
‘Bout damn time. Good on ya, David! You’re a new hero in my book. I’m gonna send Nuge an email and see if he might be willing to do the same.
