@Frank Apisa,
Quote:I think you are a very disturbed personality in a job that really should not house a person with that problem. People like you in the job of police officer...are the reason we are having much of the trouble we are having right now, John.
While you may think that I am out of touch with most police (or is it just these family memnbers you speak of...I hope not for their sake...I dont wish to see cops killed...even stupid ones)
The following is an excerpt from police training material.
Tactics that can save your life in a plainclothes gunfight
Going armed while in soft clothes requires a different mindset than when you are in uniform
..........Use stealth to reach an advantageous position before beginning your attack.
Yes, I said attack.
3. Aggression
The third element in your plan is aggression. If you’re confronting a masked assailant sticking up a Walgreens for drugs, this is not the time to draw down and order the felon to surrender.
Remember your preset rules of engagement.
If deadly force is justified, don’t threaten it, use it!
If you issue verbal commands you must wait to see if he obeys. If you feel you must issue verbal orders, learn to shout something simple while you shoot. If you decide to engage, launch an overwhelming attack. Handguns are not reliable man stoppers, even the biggest calibers. Land multiple body shots, shooting only as fast as you can reliably make center hits.
If you can sneak in close enough to start the fight with a head shot, your odds of a rapid stop will climb dramatically.
Stalk your prey and launch a devastating strike, violent aggression will win the day.
Now all you bleeding heart liberal sheeple may find this distatsefull but this is the real world with real bullets and real hardcore assholes.
I dont think any store clerk who has had a gun shoved in their face with an asshole screaming, "Give me the money or you're ******* dead!", will have too much of a problem when I blow this scumbags brains out, nor will they question why I didnt give him a cchnce to give up. And neither will their spouse or children.
Thats what cops get paid to do while you sit in your cozy armcahir poo-pooing their decissions. You should just say thank you and then shut the hell up.
