More than three-fourths, actually.

“Can qualified, law-abiding armed citizens help law enforcement reduce violent criminal activity?”

Yes: 76.0%

No:  18.6%

N/A:  5.4%

Impressive, right?

Additionally, 87.9% of participating law enforcement officers said they think “any vetted citizen” should be able to “purchase a firearm for sport or self-defense,” with only 8.9% disagreeing and 3.2% replying “N/A”.

Also of note: 96.1% of officers responding said they believe an illegal alien convicted of a crime should be “deported after serving their sentence”.
