The Star and Sickle is looking to win awards.

Pretty pathetic.

Where the hell is his concealed carry permit that we have heard so much about? Ya think?
He yelled “ I HAVE a gun” and went for it!! I would never convict that Hispanic officer!!

Slandering Lt.Col. Dave Grossman.

Despicable.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Let it, if it must. In general, the less secretive for a public position like this, the better. Let it sell itself or fail to do so, on its own merits or lack thereof.

The media will run it’s narrative and move on to another before the facts come out.

This has been going on for decades. Richard Pryor did a routine back in the early 70s where he was pulled over by a cop and said slowly “I am reaching for my wallet. I don’t want to be no m f statistic.”

If Yanez truly thought the guy was reaching for a gun AFTER he told him to put his hands on the dash then it’s perfectly understandable why he fired.

My beef is the perp was allowed to lay there and bleed out.

What do people think we should train cops in....basketweaving?

[Delta 21]

Sounds like the training may have helped save this officers life.

Would you prefer that it was the other way around?

The "liberals" want to dis-arm the police 1st, then the taxpayers/subjects.

It's not too much more complicated than that.

and the instructors urged the law enforcement officers in the hotel conference room to make the decision to shoot if they ever feel their lives are threatened.

Ehhhhhhhh, yeah. I would do the same thing.

The officer normally go into a situation outnumbered. Situations escalate. They can only back up so far.
