I am a huge fan of law enforcement. An opinion that is not shared by a small but vocal minority here on FR.
BUT, I am mystified as to how this unsophisticated Muslim kid that probably never fired a handgun until this past week was able to survive TWO firefights with state, local police, FBI, ATF,DEA(yes they were there) and their assorted SWAT and sharpshooter teams. In all he probably survived 100-150 (conservatively) rounds fired at him.
The same question arose when ex-cop Christopher Dorner escaped even more bullets by several different agencies on the west coast a couple of months ago again with the complete failure of those agencies to bring him down.
While I salute their sleuthing ability, I am seriously concerned about their demonstrated questionable firearms skills and I hope the powers that be are also of that opinion.
I have read of shootouts between suspects and cops - three feet apart - with BOTH missing! The adrenalin and fear must be overpowering!
