Legal shockwave? I know 12ga is pretty powerful, but that's a strech.
Now only imagine that it’s your wife’s Birthday and she half Mexican. 2020 FTW
Thank you. I am no longer a cop (except in spirit lol) When I was in the academy they showed us what I believe is the most famous 21 foot type video. It's Dan Inosanto making mincemeat out of armed officers, then shows the different distances trying to reinforce you must go hand to hand first.Cops have a tough job. Most people do not understand the depth of the decissions that they have to be expected to make.
A non compliant "normal" individual is bad enough . . on top of that,if his is a known bad guy,and or have mental issues,how do you handle him. If he does not care weather he lives or dies,this is the "top shelf" of potential harm coming to the cops.
We should have better systems,rules,laws,equipment,that protects the good guys from the bad guys. Far better training for the cops would be a start. Community backing would greatly help. As would help and understanding from the courts.
If I were not capeable of protecting myself adaquately,I would not be a cop. If the courts would release someone that I just risk my life to arrest,I would not be a cop. If society refused to give me both the equipment and training to do the job that they expected and demanded that I do,I would not be a cop.
In my years in the military I was always given the equipment and training to do the jobs that my superiors expected me to do. I expected it. It was the "norm".
Given all this . . I WOULD/COULD NEVER BE A COP. --- SAWMAN
Fred Rogers was 4F. Never served in the military. Urban internet legend.Sean Connery borrowed that line from Fred's TV special,just following the L.A. riots.
Fred retired from the Air Force after 21 years of . . . "doing something" also. He was quite the man. --- SAWMAN
