So I found this video available on USCCA’s Youtube channel. It is nothing short of excellent and reflects something I have thought about at times. Strongly recommended!
This is an excellent instructional video!
Yes, you can, in States that have “common sense gun laws”.
It has been done several times.
So guess thats a no for me (damn man, i cant even shoot MY attacker unless im running away at the time)
OFFICER. needs help . Yes. SIR. How .DARE. A. BAD GUY . Mess up. A police officer . When . I . Am there. . Sadly the bad guys are going to need . Help. Lots. Don’t . ASAILT. The police . Around. Me. . Love Bobby Jean. They would be blessed . If . I did shoot them. . Be. Respect full. Always.
This exact situation happened here in Florida a few years back. Someone on I-75 saw a car pulled over by FHP, and the officer was down taking a terrible beating on the side of the highway. The concealed carrier pulled over and shot the assailant dead. The good Samaritan was treated very well by the FHP, and thanked for saving the officer’s life. The officer was pretty badly injured if I remember right.
I haven’t looked into New Mexico Law about this but my Heart and my Head say’s Protect the Leo. Right or Wrong I see a Badge in trouble (i.e: Beating/ shot at)
I WILL step in. No hesitation. That said, I don’t know if there would be repercussions against ME it really doesn’t matter. I do the right thing I still believe I will be protected by you know who
mi dos centavos
I’m the kind of guy who will jump in and aid if an officer needs assistance. I will do the same for a civilian on the street also. Or a Fire Fighter, Ambulance crew, High School teacher with a rowdy class. Doesn’t matter. If I am there and they need help, they will receive help.
What He Said.
That’s the scary part, misgender a kid and it could turn into Columbine
Seems to me that the definition of “Misgender” is to call some one the sex they are and they disagree.
Yes I z Texas . If z you see A. Police officer . Down. And . The DANGER IS STILL . Coming. HELL. Yes. YES YOU CAN PUT THE. Criminals. DOWN. The REAL. Question. IS. Would you. Could. You. SHOOTING. Targets. Are . Not. The same as . Shooting. A. Person. Even if they are evil. Criminals. That being said . !!! Stop. Carrying . You’re. EDC. If . You . Will. Not DEFEND. You’re self. OR. LAW ENFORCEMENT. They just as. Our selves. Need. Help. . We. ARE STILL .AMERICA. Last . I. Checked . Ps. Sanctuary City. Well . I don’t think they . Want the police there . . And . I would never be there. SO YES. I . Would. Help. The . Police. Love Bobby jean.
Mike 164. What does this have to do with defending the law enforcement officers who need help. And . I don’t care about tranz gendiner. WTF. That’s off topic and. Who. Cares. Here’s ya a root beer . Pizz on that. Yes I would help Leo. If needs help. Love Bobby Jean.
As a matter of fact, here in MA, the officer would probably shake ur hand to thank u, then put the cuffs on all in one motion … another self defense shooting here yesterday… guy is charged at, tackled and put in a choke hold… fires one shot at the guy from the ground underneath him, and is arrested and charged with “assault and battery with a dangerous weapon”
Now a days if you call a guy a phucking possy he will say; why thank you. Want some of this?
Paul549. Move. I don’t know where you live just move . Texas. Welcome . Come on . Love Bobby jean. Offer needs . Help. Help. Just my opinion and me. Yes I will Bobby Jean
William 191. The. Man that is that stupid. Just pass by. You . Can not fix stupid!! Here’s ya a root beer vote accordingly love Bobby Jean and Debbie ann and my Chevy truck. Dam.
In that scenario, i wouldn’t shoot first. Id intervine and be ready to. In the situation in the video, physical force would work, bad guy is focused on the cop, you have the element of surprise. Now if he comes up with the gun, gloves are off.
Yes, the baton is a weapon. Perp is focused on the cop. Shes gonna take a beating ɓut i still wouldnt shoot at this point.
Agreed, I would go physical intervention before opening fire…. Maybe not a full bull rush tackle as described in the video,… but a solid boot to the head with my pistol at low ready.
Instantly gets perp off the LEO
I’m already at advantage if the perp comes back at me.
Plus, if the perp is now on the ground so the third requirement for shooting is met. (Know what’s beyond your target… asphalt ) any shots I take are safe as can be in that situation
Edit:
It helps my response in that scenario that I have nearly two decades of hand to hand weapons combat training (midevil reenactment fighting and various martial arts)
Exactly, that put you in a good position to take the next necessary step. Bull rush and roll on the ground can significantly limit ones options in a scenario like this.
Vote your heart as well BobbyJean. I try to vote for the person that upholds the values of the Bible. Ever since dumbocraps kicked god out of their party, I don’t vote dumbocrap.
