Yes! If you feel threatened by the cop pointing his gun at you, you can fire back as self defense. But I would not try it if I were you. Cops win most gun fights. They get free bullets to practice and they practice a lot.

if’you compare how well ccw folks shoot versus cops, ccw shoot better andhit their targets more often and use less bullets to stop threats than leos do. the reason why leos win aren’t because they are better shots.

This happened in Indiana. So, actually, you can't.

This is why police are dangerous, and why we are seeing abuses of power and lack of accountability. It is the State that makes this so. Increasingly, the State believes itself to be at risk from its citizens, and its proliferation of laws and acquisition of arms is accompanied by attempts to restrict citizens' rights and abilities to defend themselves.

Having been at the range next to uniformed and plainclothes cops a number of times, most of them can’t hit the broad side of anything, much less a barn.

Snicker...

Snicker...

BWAAAAAHahahahahahaaahaha!

You don't go to the range much..do ya? Cops win battles where they own a tremendous advantage in weapons and numbers. Now...The LE where I live...Douglas county Georgia...are country boys that grow up hunting like the rest of us did...are as a group much better shots than LE in NYC or Chicago.

But they ain't even close to the best in the county. And to their credit..they have not joined the dog killing craze like most LE have...again..because they are country boys.

Cops don’t practice that much. Trust me on this, I know. Their advantage is body armor.

I practice a LOT more than 99.9% of law enforcement in the US does.

You’re hilarious. I’ve never once seen a cop shoot well, and I’ve worked with many as a soldier.

On a side note, even at midnight, unless you’re in the middle of nowhere with heavy cloud cover, there is usually some light. Your rabid defense of this is making me question your sanity.
