Sean looks the officers over; he notices while armed with some kind of stick; they don’t have any traditional side arms. He asks, “Officer is it permitted to ask a question?” “Sir, that depends on the question, if your question crosses into the restricted area we are bound not to respond. What is your question?” “I notice you don’t have side arms, do LSA police officers not carry weapons?” “Sir, we carry ‘stun-sticks’ that will knock anyone of any size out, we also have knockout spray that can reach fifteen feet. We don’t carry firearms on our bodies so a criminal can’t take said weapon off of our person and use it against innocents.” “What happens if you’re called to a crime scene where criminals are using firearms?” “Sir, firearm usage has decreased every year since their total outlawing and turn-in, eleven years ago. If the situation warrants, we do have firearms locked in our vehicle.
