We of course were not armed police. We had zero police powers. I for one do not view having a shotgun in the patrol car as really being armed. I was armed because I have a permit to carry just as tens of millions of people carry. Any where you or any one else goes there are people carrying...even little old grandma's carry. I don't understand why you think one needs some kind of extensive training to ride around in a car to watch what is going on in the neighbor hood.
