Then they should be able to take away a knife or gun easily no? I've seen those guys they're super Elite super humans

Explain how anyone is supposed to unarm a suspect from 10 feet away that has a gun?

I’ll hang up and listen.

I have statements from a cop who on here says they aren’t trained to shoot to kill

So more of the training they already get will not result in more violent crime
That’s utterly stupid

- jdfitz77


You're trained to shoot center mass, which gives you the best chance to stop the threat. Like in every profession, not everybody is elite at doing every aspect of their jobs. Shooting a gun in a tense situation is not easy. Nobody in their right mind would try shooting at people's moving legs and feet. This isn't the fair. The only prize you get for not doing your job properly is hurt or dead.

NYC, this is what happens when you just continuously vote democrat with no open mind to what is good for the city. De Blasio sees a video of an NYPD unholstering his gun and says the cop should hand in his gun and badge and that it was completely unacceptable. Now the full video shows his chief getting smoked by a brick in the back of the head right next to him. The combination of Cuomo and De Blasio is downright dangerous. These left wing mayors are honestly loving what is happening right now it’s sick.

You're stupid if you believe cuomo wants this.

My advice for you all is to take a firearm safety course by a gun safe and then arm yourselves, fortify your homes, and don't become a victim. There's plenty of evil out there who do plenty of bad things.

Remember when BJ Penn, a 5th degree black belt in Brazilian jujitsu and UFC Hall of Famer was knocked out outside of a bar. Should have had more training.
- adambuffalo

No what BJ Penn should’ve done was just murder the guy because he felt threatened

Tony, when u guys gonna start dressing up like the protesters? Check out video of cop getting ran over. Kid getting taken out in the street was an accomplice. spotter. Fear not giving these cells enough credit. They are 3ER advanced. All videos taken with incredible vantage points and people taking them speaking weird ass language. Keep your eyes peeled.

So much ignorance in this thread. Cops make 30-50 grand to start and you want them trained as ninjas? They do train in firearms and defensive tactics their whole career. Just because Biden and some of y'all don't think a knife is a weapon doesn't mean it isn't. You shoot to stop the threat. Guy goes down, stop shooting. He drops his weapon, stop shooting. We're trained in this so much that it becomes muscle memory. I would love to see one of you try shooting the moving leg of someone running at you to kill you. It's ridiculous to even consider. My advice for you all is to arm yourselves, fortify your homes, and don't become a victim. There's plenty of evil out there who do plenty of bad things.

Too many Call of Duty people out there.

I’m just going off fattony (a cop) saying they aren’t trained to shoot to kill

Don’t see how more of the training they’re already getting will result in more violent crime like buffalofan19 claims

It's not really deflecting, it's more pointing out media hypocrisy.
From a Twitter post I saw, not mine:

"Trump: If the mayor of NYC doesn't do his job, I'll intervene.
Media: BOOOO! FASCIST!!!

Cuomo, 12 hours later: If the mayor of NYC doesn't do his job, I'll intervene.
Media: YAAAAY! HERO!!!"

Artice 35 dictates acceptable degrees of force used here in NYS.
I have been in law enforcement for 23 years and am sickened by what happened to George Floyd. I'm sickened that some people in society STILL judge others by the color of their skin. I am also sickened that those who are CHOOSING to break curfews and laws are RUINING the chance to make positive, long lasting change. I am sickened that my brothers and sisters in law enforcement are being victimized daily. Nearly everyone came together to condemn what happened only to have the radicals attempt to divide again. Black lives DO matter. So do law enforcement officers lives. Nearly all of which agree that these instances should NEVER be happening. Interestingly enough I am also President of my union. What I CAN tell you is that my job in the union is make sure my Officers are treated fairly. Nothing more and nothing less. If someone gets terminated, it goes before an INDEPENDENT ARBITRATOR of which there are many, mutually agreed upon by the municipality and the departments. It is NOT the union collaborating with the departments. These entities do not often see eye to eye.
I'm just saying is that we should all just try to be good, respectful human beings to each other and the rest would take care if itself.

What is he doing to step in? Going to wait until riot day 15 when the city is burned to the ground to go over the head of De Blasio? I don’t care what he does and doesn’t want this is all happening under his watch and they are late and dragging their feet on taking the city back.

If we're going by the way this country is structured, it would be the governor's job to intervene first.

- jdfitz77

Did I say more training will increase violent crime? I meant it's human nature that criminals who knew cops were unarmed, or even greatly restricted on when they could use their guns, would become bolder. Again this all went back to Gerbe's comment, to which it was replied that criminals would become bolder if cops were less armed.

Lets put it this way. (Don't take this as a threat jr, just illustrating a point).

Train for the next 5 years, every day, all day. Do anything that you feel you need to do to prepare. Heck with only 21 week training, you get 260 weeks.

After your training, come to my house. I'll be armed with a simple shotgun, nothing fancy, nothing high capacity, nothing illegal.

You will show me, through your rigorous training, how to disarm me before I shoot you. Fair?

The spin cycle really doesn't end. Watch the liberal and conservative media. There's enough information there to interpolate an opinion in the middle.
