I saw the video of that incident.
Cops pulled up and began shooting the man within seconds of getting out of their car.
Mace and a baton trump a knife if you have any kind of training whatsoever.
Shoot-to-kill cops will eventually be turned on you at some point in the near future.
I saw it too. The police were giving instructions to the man which were ignored. He continued to advance on them all the while yelling shoot me now.
So glad that you are all knowing and can tell what will work. Mace does not have much effect on those who are high on certain drugs.
I am sure your years of experience give you omniscience the rest of us lack
“Mace and a baton trump a knife if you have any kind of training whatsoever.”
How long have you been instructor in both of these disciplines?
That was straight up suicide by cop.
He shoplifted, made sure the cops were called, neatly put his stolen items on the sidewalk, waited for them, moved so bystanders wouldn’t be in line of fire, screamed “shoot me” repeatedly, and fast moved into “kill or die” range.
Pepper spray is a condiment.
Batons are contact range weapons. Fights involving a knife at contact range result in people getting cut.
The guy got exactly what he wanted: shot dead by cops.
Didn’t realize this thread was from over two months ago.
