I once got sucked into a copaganda thing in Vegas. (I thought they had Tommy guns). The whole point was to put you on the officer’s shoes to make snap decisions to show why we need to be less critical of police when they kill civilians. I argued with her that this was why we need to increase training and job requirements. The guide did not like that.
Fun fact, they hate it when a combat veteran comes through and uses military de-escalation ROE. It generally completely exposes them as forcing the scenario.
… what in the fresh 7 hells? how does putting a civilian in life or death simulations compare at all to a TRAINED “professional” doing what they literally signed up for? lmfao.
Just in case anyone else is wondering: allegedly a police officer confronted the shooter before the shots and when the shooter pointed the gun at him he retreated down the ladder instead of firing at the shooter.
meanwhile, cops also say “oops pardon the intrusion mr white man assassin, please carry on” and climb back down the ladder
Yeah that was a crazy story. With all the police militarization in this country you’d think they would have some training to go along with it.

The only thing that can stop a bad guy (read: minority) with a gun is a good guy (read: straight white male) with a gun.
Is this a Hip Hop Hood reference?
Edit: It just occurred to me that we are living in a stupid 90s comedy.

Cop was like “oh he gonna shoot trump. Carry on.”
I don’t blame the cop there. He has a gun already on him. Trying to pull his gun would have simply gotten him killed.
This a “first trump assassination attempt of 2024” reference
Don’t get my hopes up like that
Thanks for noticing :D
