No evidence has so far emerged that the cop-killer bullets President Obama wants to ban have killed a single cop.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest said earlier this week that the .223 caliber M855 ball, commonly used in the popular AR15 rifle, should be banned because it can penetrate an officer’s armor.
Alan Gottlieb, executive vice president of the Second Amendment Foundation, stated: “We have not been able to find a single instance where a police officer has been shot from this type of handgun using a bullet that pierces his soft-body armor, and if the administration had any examples you know they would be pushing it in everybody’s face to further their executive action.”
WND also polled several large police agencies, looking for anyone seriously wounded or killed because of the firing of this type of ammo from a handgun–but came up empty.
Sheriff David Clarke Jr. of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, said: “We’re doing a search nationwide to see if there’s any data that exists as proof of this comment coming out of the White House, but so far we haven’t found anything.”
He went on to say: “I’m disgusted that this administration would use the safety and well-being of our nation’s law enforcement officers to accomplish their gun-control agenda by circumventing the Congress and circumventing the Constitution in rewriting this law.”
Gottlieb thinks there could be a precedent set that could result in the banning of .30 .06 ammunition. He told WND:
“There’s other ammo out there that can be fired in a handgun, the .30.06 for example. And if they get away with this, there no doubt will be other types of ammo targeted.”
He added: “This is their trial balloon. They know if the owners can’t get ammunition, it’s no longer a functional firearm. They’ve tried to ban these guns and weren’t able to do it, so they’re going after the ammunition.”
