I can picture one of the coward cops on his radio “he’s shooting at us, sir, what do you want us to do?” Oh I dunno….how about SHOOT BACK

If I was one of the parents outside having to listen to that carnage, that police barrier would not have stopped me from charging in unarmed to try to save my kid [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Sounds like some coward cops might go down hard in this one. Also, we don’t need laws to arm ourselves because we can trust police will come save us right

Yikes I want to believe that none of this is true.

It’s all over the news. Police are in heavy backtrack mode trying to cover their asses

I generally support the blue, but I’d be very curious to see the body cam footage of those cops that supposedly “took fire”, what that looked like, and their response

Apparently after “taking fire” the cops stopped trying to engage the shooter and for a full hour let him massacre a classroom while they evacuated other children like they were movie theater ushers and not cops

Yeah man I’m super disappointed with the cop’s reaction to the shooting. Absolute cowards. An hour holding back parents and even subduing a few of them trying to get inside to pick up their kids. Then they act like they’re the heroes.

Ya, if I was a parent having to listen to the gunshots ring out, knowing there are zero officers willing to go in there to try to neutralize the shooter and that my kid is in there, I’d either charge in unarmed or grab an officer’s gun and make them decide if they want to shoot me in the back as I rushed in

The parents of the victims are going to hold the cop’s feet to the fire on this one I think

How about ban automatic loading weapons? I think that kills *2 birds.

You get revolvers, shotguns, and some rifles. But not repeater crossbows

(*good to eat)

I'm completely against anything like that because it is not evidence based (no documentation that it makes people safer) however, one thing for certain is that all weapons restrictions should apply to police and army personnel acting within the united states to have even a semblance of reasonableness. Anything else may as well state openly that it is an overtly pro authoritarian policy.

That must be why the US army exclusively uses bolt-action rifles.

Thanks for teaching me that.

If it isn't documented it isn't true and facts do not care about your unverifiable fee-fees.

Im disappointed Toy Soldiers turned out to be a complete lie.

If we're talking about military effectiveness, its obvious that a semi automatic weapon is superior to a manually cycled weapon. I would note that a revolver does well against other handguns and is of little hindrance to a skilled operator.

But we are talking about public safety within the united states, and this is the area where there is a distinct lack of evidence.
