To hell with it.
Just to prime the pump: 1. I have been involved in a total of 17 shootings. 2. I am a certified expert witness in use of force/lethal force for three state supreme courts and a couple of fed circuit courts. 3. I testify as an expert witness on behalf of both union counsel AND armed citizens. 4. Everything you bitch about, as a taxpayer, is YOUR fault. LE Training is a fucking joke. Demand accountability. I don't count dogs. I am moderately drunk. Go. ETA: PM your mother fucking selves. Holy shit, what a bunch of women. I don't know you, you don't know me. If I do know you, I can burn your house down. Shut the fuck up already. |

not my fault. i would rather pay for better training that lawsuits. putting on the badge made me an even bigger advocate for it.

17 shootings huh? How about a brief synopsis to include how many rds fired, what caliber, what type of firearm, distance, how many rounds connected, and outcome of perp?
And in these 17 shootings, have you been hit yourself? If so, please provide specifics on injury, weapon used, bullet, etc. Body armor performace as well please. |

Are there any of the shootings you would like to take back? If yes, explain. |

View Quote +1000 I know guys who did multiple tours in AFG and Iraq, mostly outside the wire, who fired their weapons less than 17 times, is VA that dangerous? |

Dunkin, crispie creme or howards?
edit: just kidding be safe. |
|
Did all of your shootings occur while working for one department?
If so, did your shootings cost anything in the way of settlements or where they all legally clean cut?

Quoted: Is 9>45? View Quote I started out with a .38 Spcl Model 10 HB as issued. 3 shootings. The majority of my incidents have been of the 9mm persuasion. Only one was a .45. Weapon was a G21, distance about 25M, rounds out: 7, rounds on target: 5. Result: Non-fatal, suspect in wheelchair for life + colostomy bag. Of all total shootings, on 6 have been fatalities. It never ceases to amaze me the amount of punishment the human body can sustain.

So, in those 17 shootings, were you just present at the scene for the gunfire or did you actually fire shots on 17 separate occasions?
All those shootings on US soil? Also, what kind of LE? Quoted:

Out of the 17, did the majority happen under the same circs?
T-stop? DV call? |

First day? What a way to to start your career. Not criticizing. Glad you survived those encounters.
|
|
Did you ever get "hit", and did you still "win " the fight after being hit?
|
|
Did the fact that you were OC (I assume uniformed LE at least part of the time) put you at a disticnt Tactical Disadvantage??
|
|
I'm assuming you work for a major metropolitan department; are you at liberty to say which?
