Just like with the 2004 nationwide ccw for active/retired leos and NYS efforts to exempt themselves from the 7 round magazine limit.

I am sure others here can cite other examples as well.
The NRA is much more powerful than any police association. They have more money. More connection. More juice. Really.

And thank you for your past support of, and financial contributions to, LE associations. And all your future support as well. Really.

In a gun fight, even doing everything right can still get you killed.
