Now, before anyone starts berating me for being critical of LEO's, know that I deal with LEO's on a regular basis: I'm a LEO trainer on a national level. Yes, I train LEO's all over the country. I've seen a lot of good ones... But there is a huge increase in the "shoot first, recognize threat second" crowd. These are the ones that are just plain scared witless. I deal with them after the officers are already assigned to the street, and have expressed concerns to departments in regard to some that should not be on the street at all. All I can do is inform the powers that be and go on to the next class and town. It is very disheartening at times. The only thing more dangerous than a coward with a gun is a coward with a gun and a badge.
I am all in favor for life or death penalty for cops shooting innocent people. Especially when it happens multiple times. Is that not equal protection under the law?
Thank you from this 29 year veteran city cop. I’m horrified by these videos. No question: those cops are whack. A more dangerous 3% than in the past.
I’ve seen the videos: they gots no brains! Shooting people, multiple rounds....from safe cover. Wallets and sticks are ‘guns’ in their pie-eyes. Flaw in training? Fewer washouts from training academies? What the hell is up with that??
