Most cops have only basic firearms training and shoot only about three hundred rounds per year for practice. (When I shot competitively, I used to shoot 2,000 rounds per week to reach top performance levels.) The crazy idea that cops on the beat have exceptional skills with guns is a movie fantasy. *********************** https://www.usconcealedcarry.com/ar...public-safety-police-or-carry-permit-holders/ Records from major police departments like New York and Chicago clearly show that the âhit ratesâ (percentage of shots fired by cops that actually hit suspects) are nothing short of abysmal. Cops typically hit offenders less than 20% of the time, often at distances of 10 feet or less! http://www.forcescience.org/fsinews/2006/12/new-findings-from-fbi-about-cop-attackers-their-weapons/
Yeah, from which I can grow an account. This is the ultimate achievement. You cannot possibly say the same. I can take a toddler and make them a millionaire by the time they get out of high school. You, are average, mudane, a redneck, inferior.
The point I'm trying to make is a LEO should feel confident he is more proficient with a weapon than a criminal. One on one. Hence he should be able to draw his weapon and use it whenever he feels like it and not have the weapons use dictated by a tort lawyer.
Only an ignorant anus , yeah that means an affirmative action baby like yourself would confuse the concepts of that post (to which you replied) as a complaint of my disenfranchisement. here eduujumicate yerself Disfranchisement (also called disenfranchisement) is the revocation of the right of suffrage (the right to vote) of a person or group of people, or rendering a person's vote less effective, or ineffective. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disfranchisement Obviously you fail to grasp my point that Saudis get special treatment here in the US. Tell us when are you gonna admit your muzzie terrorist sympathies? IOW: When are you going to be honest with us for once?
If LEO is more proficient then why do criminals hit their intended targets almost twice as often as police officers? http://www.forcescience.org/fsinews/2006/12/new-findings-from-fbi-about-cop-attackers-their-weapons/ Truth is, cops on the beat are no better shots than anyone else who's had even a small amount of training. More often than the officers they attacked, offenders delivered at least some rounds on target in their encounters. Nearly 70% of assailants were successful in that regard with handguns, compared to about 40% of the victim officers, the study found. (Efforts of offenders and officers to get on target were considered successful if any rounds struck, regardless of the number fired.)
