Tulsa Police Chief Urges People Trade Some Freedom For Gun Control & Safety

Tulsa Police Chief Wendell Franklin https://bit.ly/2CHLudt Tulsa's Police Chief, Wendell Franklin, recently expressed his support for a 9/11-style response to gun violence and suggested that people may need to sacrifice their freedoms in exchange for gun control measures & safety. In an interview posted by NPR, Franklin criticized constitutional carry, advocated for stricter regulations on so-called "ghost guns," and hinted at the implementation of waiting periods for purchasing commonly owned firearms like the AR-15. Franklin, emphasizing the expertise of law enforcement in protecting the nation, stated, "We are the subject matter experts at protecting America, right? Protecting our cities. And, you know, we should be utilizing that in that manner." He believes that if there are better methods of safeguarding the community, they should be explored even though the supreme court ruled that they are not responsible for your individual safety. In a quote shared by Public Radio Tulsa, Franklin acknowledged his support for the Second Amendment while expressing his willingness to relinquish some freedom, drawing a parallel to the measures taken after 9/11. He stated, "Ultimately, I’m a Second Amendment guy... But I’m okay giving up some of that freedom, right? We had to give up some of that freedom after 9/11. I’m okay with waiting three days, five days, or whatever to get my firearm if I go out and purchase another firearm. So I’m okay with a pause to allow for weapons to be purchased and allow the government and the gun companies to look at the background and do a thorough check before that gun goes to someone." To justify his stance, Franklin likened giving up freedom for gun control to the process of adapting to seatbelt laws when they were initially introduced. He explained, "You know, we put seatbelt laws in place...probably in the 1980s, I think. And we mandated that everyone starts wearing a seatbelt, and it took some time for people to grab hold of that. But if you look today, it is an automatic thing that people put on their seatbelt when they get into a vehicle. You feel uncomfortable not wearing that seatbelt. I think again, we give something up to get safety for something safe. I think that’s where we are today. We are going to have to give up some things. And I think there are some things that we can give up for a safer community." While Chief Franklin raises these arguments, it is crucial to critically examine the implications of surrendering our rights in the name of safety.
