If you are arrested in Los Angeles, it could be by a criminal, wearing a badge and given a government gun. Bet you did not know that people who violate our immigration laws are deciding who goes to jail in this country.
“The LAPD is looking to adjust its policies to allow immigrant officers with deferred citizenship to keep their service firearms while off-duty, NBC Los Angeles reported.
Federal law normally prohibits residents of the U.S. under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy (DACA) from owning firearms, according to the report.
The LAPD is seeking to include officers’ off-duty hours as a continuation of their official duties, making it legal for DACA recipients to take their service firearms home with them.”
These are NOT immigrants—they are criminals. Period. This is how a totalitarian nation operates—they use criminal for law enforcement. Los Angeles is really dangerous when you have law breakers enforcing the law.
If you are stopped by an LAPD cop, you need to ask if they are here legally. Under Federal law they are NOT allowed to work in this country—NOR have a gun.

LOS ANGELES — The LAPD is looking to adjust its policies to allow immigrant officers with deferred citizenship to keep their service firearms while off-duty, NBC Los Angeles reported.
Federal law normally prohibits residents of the U.S. under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy (DACA) from owning firearms, according to the report.
The LAPD is seeking to include officers’ off-duty hours as a continuation of their official duties, making it legal for DACA recipients to take their service firearms home with them.
“When these current individuals, who are DACA recipients, graduate from the academy, it would be appropriate for us to have a written policy that clearly defines what their authorities and responsibilities are, given their position as a police officer,” Chief Michel Moore told NBC Los Angeles.
