Tell me again how the 9mm and "ballistics technology" are better than a caliber beginning with a four.

The perp is alive and the officer is lucky to be alive as well. She should have given him the Mozambique Drill - two to the body, one to the head.

The officer should also have kept the cruiser between the perp and herself.

I used to go to nearby St. Sebastian Church sometimes. That is not the worst part of Middletown.

I thought that the reason for the 9mm was that these municipalities didn't want dead perps.

Was his name “Maxwell” by any chance?

Too many unknowns, in the story, to make a judgement.

9 mm is just fine. And the same thing can and does happen with 45. Utterly disgusting to hear some chubby middle-aged female screaming for her life at a situation like that. Remember, that’s who supposed to be coming to save you or your loved ones.

There are plenty of examples of a shooter using a 9mm weapon to neutralize a target. Caliber is but one criterion to consider when selecting an appropriate firearm for one’s purpose.

Thie 9mm vs .40+ is one of my favorite online arguments, along with proper brisket seasoning and cooking method, weight lifting/diet methodology for maximum hyperthrophy and of course, the best of all time …. M-16 Vs AK-47. We should debate all the above within the same thread and set a FR post count record.

Shot placement is more effective than caliber wars.

You couldn’t be more correct! I practice that whenever I can . Somebody told her she could be a cop and it nearly cost her life. The moment I see that hammer, I’m lining-up my sights! “Would you please put that down” is not a winning strategy. She should just count her blessing anf find a new job!

The “carpenter” is nuts. He tried to strip during his arraignment.
