As long as all the people who obtain their paychecks from a government or municipal source for their employment made it home safely, it was worth it.

Several years ago the police in Hong Kong got into a fire fight with some kind of gangsters. Over 100 rounds were fired by both side. They hit nobody. You almost have to try to shoot that bad.

According to the story the guy was holding the gun by its slide.

Dumb move, for sure. Hands in the air is just fine.

The police are the standing army the Founders warned us about.

That was simply awful! The LEO’s paid no attention to those those behind their target. That’s one of the main lessons of proper gun control that is drilled into every gun enthusiast’s head. It’s one of the main lesson taught to into every new shooter. ALWAYS be aware of what is behind your target!

When it comes to prose about barroom shootings my favorite has always been Robert Service.

Then I ducked my head, and the lights went out, and two guns blazed in the dark,
And a woman screamed, and the lights went up, and two men lay stiff and stark.
Pitched on his head, and pumped full of lead, was Dangerous Dan McGrew,
While the man from the creeks lay clutched to the breast of the lady that's known as Lou.

Fire them all, charge them if at all possible. If they are going to pull and fire their firearms, they need to be competent and trusted. Obviously not. And did they lie about how guy was holding his gun, as if maybe to surrender it? If so, that’s even worse.

CCW holders have to be careful as the thin-blue-line won’t protect them, make excuses for them, lie for them, or claim immunity, etc.

You just can’t beat Robert W. Service. My kids sat through many readings, most often The Cremation of Sam McGee, but Dan McGrew and others showed up in rotation.

If you or I hit bystanders like that trying to stop a bad guy they’d put us under the jail.

Those two poems are probably his most dramatic. My Dad used to read them to us. His favorites were those two, in reverse order, but he read us others too. I still have his copy of a book of Robert W. Service poems.

Sadly, expect a lot more of this. These dumps can't attract good cops and instead get the retreads and washouts from other departments.

The cops really jumped the statistics up significantly by shooting six who were already at the top of the "most likely to get shot".

I'd have to go look up the order but cops shooting bystanders has already been the top chances of getting shot, even more than cops shooting criminals.

-Cops shoot bystanders.
-Bad guys shoot other bad guys.
-Bad guys shoot intended victims.
-Cops shoot bad guys.
-Bad guys shoot cops.
-Alec Baldwin

When you have sovereign immunity good aim is not needed.

Its why ccw folks are excellent shots and fire fewer rounds than cops, on average.
