Your 8 x 10 piece of paper rang my bell. At the range I put 47 out of 49 9mm shots through the paper at 50 feet. I was asked why I didn’t use an actual target.
I held the paper before my chest (center mass) and the question was answered without a word.
No boasting, though, I was the one MOST surprised, but my own questions were answered.
I pray I never have to do it for real.

If you've ever looked at the facts (instead of emotional hearsay), you understand. You should NEVER let someone considered to be a threat and within 50 feet of you keep their hands concealed in ANY manner. To do so is almost certain death.

The invective on here is anger at the government for making wrong decisions. However, the high level officials making those wrong decisions are guarded by people and held in power by people doing a job they were hired to do to keep peace in society. The way to change things is to correct the collapsed value system of society which will lead to righteous leaders.

All of those making harsh comments against police on here would be even more despotic were THEY the ones holding the gun and feeling threatened by someone who refused to follow rightful orders. Our lack of Biblical values in this nation is going to lead to armed conflict. Either this nation turns back to God or we follow the rest of the world in settling wrongs or perceived wrongs with violence.

By the way, this man "Lara" came from a nation that does just that. His point of view about police and righting wrongs is very different than what a lot of people here grew up with.
