Happened two days ago. This video shows just how quickly your life may be over. The cop was extremely lucky!

People are nucking futs. A miracle it didn’t fire and that Conrad had the fortitude to grab him.

I think it didn’t go off because he forgot there wasn’t one in the pipe.

This was my Sisters worst nightmare for me. I had no idea I would come in the door and she would silently send a prayer ‘Thank you God for bringing him home safe’….I knew she worried but ….

Towards the end of my run we had folk’s trying to access the Airbase by cutting threw the Wire or burrowing under our outer defenses–caught on camera we set up on them, let them get so far and then we descended on them like a swarm of bee’s not giving them a chance to draw down on us—when that happened it was Weapons Free ( EDIT: FEDERAL PROPERTY/MILITARY INSTALLATION).

The thing that stands out is this shifty little sh!t wasn’t FULLY SEARCHED ! I mean down to the Tee shirt and Pants. He had a little shoulder bag? Oh c’mon. And this was in the United States.

In Foreign lands when we came across Insurgents (formerly Cooks and other ‘Trusted’ Vetted Locals) who either came under suspension or were caught pacing off the Base (caught with a camera etc) we stripped those phuckers bare Outside for all to see! Any ‘resistance’ was met with an Attitude Adjustment. Caught with explosives? well, lets just say we turned them over to trusted locals and they did the disappearing.

Experts say ‘You have to READ THE ROOM. or Read the Suspect’—for me? this guy looked off (as I said shifty)

This Officer got lucky.

I’ll bet THAT lesson is fully ingrained in his muscle memory by now… Either by himself or his sergeant.

Agreed! It’ll be in his thoughts for quite some time I would imagine. Along with the occasional nightmare staring down the barrel of the Holland Tunnel—sh!t like that doesn’t just go away.

This Vid was a GREAT example of Lesson Learned and not a Folded Flag event.

Reminds me of that other vid posted here some time ago where that ‘Sherriff?’ Local Cop in Southern New Mexico I believe walked up on a ‘Trespasser’ and the Murderer (Former Special Forces?) sprinted full speed @ the Officer and stabbed him to death! (a little too casual for the times we are living in these days and it cost the young Officer his life).

Sometimes you don’t get to live through your mistakes but you will be a Cautionary Tale for others to learn from and Live to go home to their families in the future.

Ron, Not to belabor the point but THIS (Vid/Topic) for me is ‘The Goods’. This is what should be posted, talked about, Lessons learned and spread out to our Community. All the Memes and Political hash is good/Interesting but the Situational Awareness, Do’s and Don’ts, is what really needs to be talked about MORE than it currently is. We are in Interesting Times. There’s a lot of Crazy, unsettled feelings, Political Violence out there today.

Just getting Gas, or Grocery shopping could be a life changing event.

Thank you Brother.

When it comes down to brass tacks, you are absolutely right. Just the way this one gloved moron was behaving while sitting on the bench should have raised the hairs on this cop. He looked like he was hiding SOMETHING…

Yessir, And it’s far easier to Monday Morning Quarterback a situation from behind a keyboard (something I hope not to be doing—ever) but the word ‘HINKY’ came to mind as soon as I saw him for the first time being corralled by the Undercover Security. —You are being TOLD SOMETHING way before it gets out of hand.

The Head on a swivel, First impressions, Hair raised all have to be acknowledged immediately.

Plus he gave up some drugs first before going for the piece! ding ding ding ding! Big time warning bells should have gone off!

Definitely not normal behavior.

Never Ever judge a person by looks only or age. Always assume the person could be a threat. That way you go home safe.

He put every attachment he could on his pistol but forgot to have one in the chamber. I am happy the officer walked away from that, but it points out that tricking out your pistol with every accessory means nothing if you don’t have a bullet to shoot.

These criminal PUNKS/prohibited from possessing firearms have guns but CAN’T afford to pay/have no money to pay for groceries/items at the store and DON’T give a :poop: who they put in high risk/innocence in harm’s way when they’re out doing their criminal shoplifting shopping spree. Good thing this idiot fumbled his intention and was sacked to the floor. :laughing: High :raised_hand: five for fast action (luckily nothing went BANG!!! just CLICK!!!) on the takedown by security team, but :-1: thumbs down on poor frisking on this little scrappy looking 21-year-old jerk.
