Appears to be a radical Muslim. Wonder if it will be considered a hate crime. RickyB will be by shortly to claim the attack was justified

And if you're a 28 yr old woman who's afraid of guns? Some kid whose mom works overnight and he's home alone? An 83 yr old half blind widower who is holed up in his bedroom? Million examples of people needing cops when the time comes. And if you're a 35 yr old with a 32 yr old wife and two small kids if you have any sense instead of saying I got this you call for help too.

Off duty so they were acting as private citizens

Off duty so they were acting as private citizens

Armed and trained. Attending church. Not the type that folks here are making all cops out to be. Hey @Integrity here's an example of all or nothing thinking! All cops are this. All corporations are that. All mentally ill think they're in the Matrix. All.......or nothing.

You think SWAT teams are showing up at people's doors at 3 a.m.(or whenever) more than home invasions? You really hate cops huh?

Why on earth, as a 35 year old man with dependents would I abdicate my responsibility of protecting my family?

In the event of a firearm requiring emergency, 5 minutes might as well be 5 hours.

If Someone breaks into my house at 3am, one of us isn't making it to 4. I like my chances

Absolutely a need for cops. In this scenario I'll need them to haul a lifeless corpse off my property and take my statement.

Cops job isn't really to protect and serve. More to clean up after they show up too late to prevent things from happening.

Cops job isn't really to protect and serve. More to clean up after they show up too late to prevent things from happening.

And odds are good that they'll show up in time to arrest you for defending yourself.

I have great respect for officers around here. I'm sure there are some bad apples in the bunch but I don't want my city to turn into Chicago or NYC.
