a vietnam veteran with military training vs. an officer is a unfair match to begin with

He saw no combat 😂

@rogerstone6848 George turned to my knee

I think it’s the difference in training. This was a similar attack in the Dallas shooting. In both attacks you can clearly see the difference in training. Military training requires you to advance and move around. Police training requires to hunker down, be defensive and wait for your target. It’s just the style of training is more effective than the other

@@Dhdjdjsjdjsjksure did, watch the original. he baited him, used suppressive fire from the patrol ready position (taught back in the day for Vietnam vets) until he closed the distance to smoke the officer.

The clip is used in police academys as a reason you should escalate if the suspect seems dangerous

@@Spacebaryonyx cops are scared they will get in trouble they have a tough job

When he backed away and went back to his cruiser he actually signed his death warrant.He gave the suspect the ability to go to his vehicle and get the carbine..The suspect then had the advantage of cover and distance.

Everything

i'm confused, "dead to rights"? you mean in the sense that he could still gun the officer down?

@BelieverOfChrist2 Yes. I think LEOs need to be able to carry and get to carbines much faster in order to level the playing field. Plus if you go back to watch the video this is based on, Brennan had a lot more advantages then I realized, and this video showcased the relative cover and positioning he was operating from.

​@@H_O_R_S_I_Ethe last thing our country needs is more cops playing gi Joe. There's enough cops walking around armed to the teeth as it is. If you told someone 40 years ago it would be this way, they would say we live in a police state

@@johnherbert1431 I think there's a two pronged problem to this: if police officers are continually positioned as being morally disposable, and not people, then there's effective grounds to continue qualified immunity on their behalf. And if they're disposable, and we don't value them, what surrogate force would we trust to take on a cracked veteran whose killing people, or is a threat to public safety? We can't say a "militia" when that same group of people wouldn't be interested in any judicial or constitutional process, largely, because they would be susceptible to admiring the carnage that could be caused. I may not like the legal powers that the police have, but if it means granting them parity to survive an attack by a criminal whose breaking the law, carbine style service weapons level the playing field. My only gripe is that what a cop owns, a citizen should be allowed to own, and vice versa.

If you watch the whole video - when Brannan got out unarmed, Dinkheller was very near him, 2 meters from his car with a baton pulled I think ? That's when a gun draw and warning at gunpoint from 2 meters would have saved Dinkheller easily. And if Brennan goes for his rifle - magdump from 2 meters. This could have been a slaughter the other way *if only* Dinkheller took him seriously ( should have, he was already shouted at he is facing a Nam combat veteran ) And if he did not retreat. It's so sad for both really.

Yes because criminals are going to apply for a permit for a gun.

Because that wouldn't work at this point in America, aside from the fact we have more legally known guns in the US than people, that's not accounting for millions of unregistered and untraceable weapons. Aside from that, the realistic answer is give everyone a gun. It sounds idiotic but in all actuality, one if not the only US place to have done it had a massive decrease in crime when they added a "One gun per household law", or at least one gun. Plus, states that have added constitutional carry laws have shown drops in violent crime in most of their bigger cities if not all. The issue will never and physically can't be the guns, it will always be the people telling the guns to fire.

Because we have a constitutionally protected right to own guns genius

@@morninmichigan1824literally. If everyone owns and carries a gun, then shootings are over in a matter of seconds.

Victim blaming.

@@oliverbruce6240Ukraine supporting…as if the US doesn’t need aide.

That flag is outdated boy ​@@oliverbruce6240

It’s not poor taste. They use this scenario to train law enforcement nationwide and have done so for over two decades. The family of the victim has supported these training tactics to save as many officers as possible and prevent this from happening again.

They say the training guides officers to make violent decisions and is likely the reason why so many situations get escalated to shootings. Specifically, one was the shooting of Philando Castile. I would argue it has done more harm than good​@@Instantnoodle1984

And then u clicked on it. Stop virtue signaling.

It’s done with a good purpose in mind

Cry more about it😂
