Wait wait wait, so you're saying that pointing out that the police get special priviliges is stupid? Well, i don't know, i think perhaps that you should be apologizing to all of us for even bringing it up in the first place.

Nope, in practice the police can actually run nearly any red light that they want. In any case, if you're trying to imply that when it comes to gun ownership if a family member of yours was bleeding profusely you'd be willing to break the law with your gun(this is all about gun ownership after all) than you don't really sound like a lawful, repsonsible gun owner to me.
