Louisville Incident

[newolddude]

Why would the Uvalde police department, a small town police department, be remotely similar to a big city department with SWAT and all that?

Watch the Nashville video. He was a beat cop who rolled up, got keys, pulled out a rifle from his standard police car called for 3 or 4 guys to back him up and pushed in hard. He wasn't SWAT.

There aren't as many details from St. Louis. But again sounds like normal beat cops who were in the door in under 2 minutes after arrival. Not trained, hardened, geared up SWAT guys.

That's just silly.

It’s meant to be.

That's just silly.

Once you have a couple of beers, they all look like targets. Lol

Wait, so you’re saying guns can save people? That’s insane I thought they were only meant for mass slaughter?

Wait a minute I thought you said cops were murders? I am a skilled pro marksman with certification I can guarantee you I can handle any weapon, better than any donut, eating cop. You wouldn’t know a trained professional if you met one.

At least since Uvalde the cops appear to have learned. At both the recent St. Louis and Nashville school shootings the cops charged in hard, fast and took the shooter down very quickly. Big props to them. They didn't stand around and put on lip balm or wait for clearance like Uvalde.

Unfortunately the police are learning through experience.

You mean like a law abiding citizen?

You mean like a law abiding citizen?

Same ones that scream about cops, murdering people and being racist only want cops to have guns?

And do you think all these mass shooters are trained professionals? Of course not it would be very easy to take them out if you’re in the same room with them and they have to reload eventually

 

[Babagounj]

New shooting in Washington,DC.
This time the shooter drove away.
It happened right in front of a funeral home, where the services for a 25 year old just ended.
Sounds like a gang thing.

And I bet you don't have a nickel's worth of liability insurance backing you should you use your shooting skills to kill or injure another person and you fail to prove in a court of law that it was warranted . Never thought about that now did you?

Manslaughter conviction. Getting sued by the victims family taking every cent of personal property to your name. Not a single gunslinger on this page has ever stopped for a moment and considered what the personal consequences could be if they used lethal force to take another life and they fail to prove that it was warranted.

Defending the rule of law is commendable...Until the law comes for you and you discover that contrary to your long standing belief that the law is always on your side that is this particular case....it isn't.

How many of those crimes/robberies etc stopped with AR-15s?

According to media frighten sheeple every single time.
For they only know of one type of weapon.
