this is not a safe world... never has been never will be.... if you sit there and believe that officers putting themselves at a tactical disadvantage is going to save lives or stop these people from doing what they are doing you are in denial.
btw nice pic of a FEDERAL office defiantly overreacting during the Clinton admin....
***Patton is on the left, btw.***
Bonus Army
I don’t know who the guys in the middle and on the left are. I know the one on the right is Kennedy.
do you know anything of armed response and how to approach it safely...
r
you comment about columbine.... is o a ad hoc attack on those officers... they knew that more than 10 people had been shot... you don't go rushing into a situation like that you get you Intel and attack it logically and safely that will limit that amount of damage/casualties you take.. both for those being held captive and your own forces...
but it appears by your comments that you have the TV version of what cops are in your reality vs. what man others of us see/experience on a daily basis....
perhaps if you red the FBI crime statistics and other police and law enforcement information about what is going on in some parts of our country it may afford you a better understanding of the reality of the world around us and not seeing it as a fairy tale world...
call me slow, what scene?
the news media
phx pd
homeland security?
i’m really curious :) if you can hint.....
hi jinx knows people, and is a darn nice guy to boot!
ah, then we should get some answers, janet won’t give us any
gracias :)
BTTT ..... to keep an eye on this thread. Thanks, Jinxie...
That would be tonight, or previously.
The dead guy would probably call it "armed combat" if he could speak.
perhaps if you read the FBI crime statistics Please show me any statistic, any statistic that shows law enforcement to be as dangerous as construction, convenience store clerk or even a taxi driver.
Can you tell me how wearing a hood over one's head offers any sort of safety enhancement? To the contrary, it obscures vision and hearing.
No-knock raids are over rated too. Look at Waco. Why not just quietly arrest the guy at the grocery store instead of incinerating all the women and children that they were there to "save?"
I'm just saying that police would get far more respect if they went back to dressing and acting like real men, Policemen instead of like little boys.
I have no problem with arming police to the teeth, bulletproof vests, howitzers if needed or anything else. I just want to see police looking and acting like police and not trying to look like military or dressing up like thugs. Look at the Elian Gonzales picture. The guy looks like a fool.
MS 13 gang house, that might be a different story but the tactics used against a threat like that should not spill over, under any circumstances to routine busts like they do.
point taken......except it sounds like he brought a bong to a gun fight....
And it's rumored that Obama when elected will want to confiscate our weapons to make our amigos to the south feel mucho mejor.
still can’t find anything local on this, either tv web sites or the print media, there is however, info on every site about heather locklear in az for depression
the media, congress, our elected officials ignoring what the leak on the southern border is doing to our country is enough to cause depression, but i don’t have 6K a week to go to a spa
Yes, “Hijinx is a darned nice guy” - I can verify that comment.
consider the fact that in this day and age how could the officer tell if he has a weapon or God forbid a suicide belt on... there is less damage to the populous if this individual is surprised and arrested at home where he feels safe vs.. him being in public where his awareness may be heightened or if he feels corners he takes out his closest target of opportunity before he is apprehended...
these tactics are necessary in this day and age the days of good people is passed at least for now...
This ain't much ammo for what may be 6 guys,,,
15 rounds,or so,per man ?,,,
They may have hidden more of course,,,
I bet the local LEOs find more,,,
This is sure something to watch closely...
i don’t think that he’s home, at least on this issue
you’re right, up to 6 guys, that wouldn’t be enough
according to what i heard on kfyi, (i think that this is from the internal pd memo), that they ran out of ammo
it is curious, and that is an interesting question
