LEO correct me if incorrect for current training...

LEO not trained to take headshots.

SWAT & Snipers are trained to take headshots.

My earlier take on this is that police were pre-deployed with intel of the ‘gathering’ and alleged threats of violence. Regardless what started it, another dichotomy between Waco & Baltimore is the police presence. Rather, lackthereof (visible deterrence) in Waco until bullets started flying.

Interesting on the ‘head shot’ report...

” Rather, lackthereof (visible deterrence) in Waco until bullets started flying.”

In the interview, Luther specifically states that when he arrived he was glad for the strong police presence such that the police ‘had them covered’ if the Bandidos started any trouble.
