Maybe the President knows more than I do about the cop, but it seems premature to label him a “coward”. The hero in him might simply have been trained away, for example, due to poor local police policies set in place.
I agree too, and Donald has something to learn yet about shooting from the hip.
He just shifted the dialog completely by using one little word. He can take what they dish out, and he’s very well privy to information we don’t know about yet.
He almost always does and almost always is correct.
And in their crazed effort to prove Trump wrong, the media will expose that very fact. Just don't tell anyone I said that.
Premature? The shooting occurred about 9 or 10 days ago. They know exactly where Peterson was and what he as doing.
He was outside the building where the shooting was in progress, I believe the west side of building 12. And stayed in that position for about 4-5 minutes, never entering the building. Each round he heard going off was likely a young kid being brutally murdered.
The hero in him might simply have been trained away, for example, due to poor local police policies set in place.

Very possible.
And as I read this -

it occurs to me that Peterson actually might have been ordered to STAND DOWN.
He certainly was under previous orders to ignore teen violence. So he failed to respond to the shootings?
Just part of the job.
