«This is what happens when police are issued 9mm handguns, and not given the proper training UNDER EXTREME DIRESS to place shots that would put someone down almost instantly. Perhaps they should jump out of their cars approaching suspects with 00 buckshot shotguns with a pistol grip and an 18 inch barrel. Shit will end quickly, or at least the suspect will have no time to think to run away anywhere, ok, well maybe limp a few feet and then contemplate the afterlife they are about to enter because of their grievous deeds. Just MY opinion anyway.»

«Prime example of why women shouldn't be cops. Screaming and fussing instead of charging the problem head on. Shameful display.»
