You read post 151 and still ask me that stupid question?

Of course, I wouldn’t want them to be incompetent and casual killers and killing people when they don’t need to.

I worked to get my son into the Army and he served with the 10th Mountain division, that means that I wanted him to serve his fellow man and in the most dangerous work of all if needed, I wanted him to be a warrior.

This cop is a good role model, he appears to be brave and true, something that we don’at always see form the union people in law enforcement.

Here’ the thing: If the cop had shot and killed the man, you would no longer support the cop's decision.

That's why a cop must follow his training, not his intuition or respond to media/political pressure.
