That's what I was thinking. If I had to live like that, I'd probably go crazy, too. Jeebus, what a mess.

Props to that cop. Tactical retreat while firing strong hand only and scoring hit(s) on a running target. Probably took all of 1.5 seconds. Adrenaline must have been off the charts. Glad he was able to go home at the end of the day.

Cowardess or not, distance is a good thing....either way it worked.


My speculation is that most of us on this site as well as most police officers could easily hit a paper plate at 50 yards while most criminals would have a hard time hitting a parked Buick.

Distance is always your friend in a gunfight if you possess skill.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Or could be an inability to deal with stress from living at the bottom rung of the ladder.

Cop did the right thing.
He created distance, which creates options. They guy could of stopped his charge at the bottom of the stair, at which point the cop could of turned, acquired a good sight picture, and started talking they guy down.

When Bozo made that right turn, well and didn't slow down, once again, the cop did the right thing.

I just saw on OAN that there were protests after this incident and it was either 6 or 8 ppl arrested (not sure how many). Apparently the judge set bail for each at 1 million because BLM has been paying bail for these jerks. Kudo's to the judge.

That's interesting. Just a few short weeks ago I was roundly lambasted right here on the fire for touting the value of a tactical retreat or disengagement.

Every time I hear how expensive it is to lock people up I say it is much more expensive to turn them loose. Almost every time something really bad happens it is caused by someone recently released.

And, sadly, Trump was 100% behind the push for letting them out of jail/prison under criminal justice reform. I suspect it was his daughter and son in law (the Kushners) that hammered that idea into his head. He certainly didn't run on the idea of letting dangerous criminals out of lockup because there are too many blacks in it, and that's unfair. I don't remember those chants at his rallies.

I don't think Trump's intentions are to let murderers or nut cases out. So far most of the people he's let out have been guilty of non aggressive offenses.


What goes up must come down, what goes around comes around, there's no free lunch. Trump's comin' back, get over it!

So.

1. Family calls cops after perp goes whacko on them.

2. Cop drills perp after perp goes whacko on cop.

3. Family now criticizes cop and calls for protests.

4. Mayor loses nads in the face of protests, and agrees that "more must be done" for knife-wielding whackos.

We are living in Clown World.

I hope the people up there vote the nutless mayor out of office and elect the cop mayor.
