While I agree with that it's obvious the American prison system has failed. If keeping people caged like animals worked we'd have solved crime before Jesus was born. The Scandanavian countries more or less have it figured out by making the goal actual rehabilitation instead of pure punishment (for most of these people having to speak with a counsellor several times a week and learn a marketable skill other than crime would be a punishment itself). A system that is able to weed out those who are a threat to the public and keeps them away while simultaneously focusing on making sure that those who do have a chance to function in society are given the tools needed so they don't resort to a life of crime would be the best, and they have got the closest thing ever conceived. Its a puzzle to me why prisons and mental institutions are not more closely knit together as it's not like these criminals are of perfectly sound minds.

There are some basic rules about foot pursuits that seem to have been lost as I watch police videos these days. The rule of thumb from the past was in a two man car, the driver stays in the car and the passenger/contact officer pursuits the suspect on foot. In most cases the suspect gets gassed and runs out of energy and is taken down by the driver easily. We used this tactic a couple of dozen times a year and have always been successful, even with armed personnel. In this case the third backup unit would have been responsible for staying with his car and running him down (not literally) cutting down his area of movement. Additionally, it seems every cop today just yells, "shots fired" for anything, whether they just shot a dog or just had an accidental discharge. The radio call should be, " firefight with suspect running south on Main st" or whatever location. Just yelling shots fired is useless.

Police accuracy scares me. I forgot where the stats were from, but it was saying accurate police fire was at about 54% . I don't know whether the parameters for that are on range or on the job, but that's concerning

[@IamtheBurceDickenson]

At one point the gunfire sounded like a Star Wars blaster.

[@timbenham516]

It looks to me that citizens are just a backstop or Collateral damage in this situation.

[@idontwanna1316]

First time I’ve heard a firearm come close to going “Pew! Pew!”

[@ES-gy1ti]

Telling me you skip live fire training without telling me you skip live fire training. This is how you get your municipality involved in lawsuits.

[@tshiruh5]

John you are looking good 👍🏾

[@bryanbrenner9212]

what the hell was that wild shot at the end of the first body camera, like you can see one of your partners running down the sidewalk right behind suspect, and you think your gonna thread that needle at 40 plus yards with a pistol?? yeah okay robocop

[@WaitWhatsMyName]

He did it at the range that one time though

[@tarwashsomeonestolemyhandle]

saw that . thought i was seeing things. wouldn't want that officer at my back.

[@johnbanuelos4890]

John great show 😎💯

[@hakan341]

police should avoid such situations. the suspect will be caught either way. shooting around in a public space it's so dangerous. this should be avoided under all circumstances.

[@Not2daysatan]

That is insanity!

[@ShortyMcvay517]

The cops are lucky they didnt hit an innocent or catch any strays themselves 🤦‍♂️

[@Hey_Driver]

WE LOVE MIKE! WE LOVE MIKE! Yeeeeyeeee! 🎉🥳👍🏼🫶🏻

[@NotMuchHere]

not just a gun ... he pulled a big ole gun

[@yomama269378]

Ok is it just me or does it sound like they are using star wars blasters when those first few shots are fired.

[@BryanProvince]

It’s sad that this guy said he was a veteran. There are SOOOO many jobs where a veteran would be a fantastic fit. For instance, New York Times could use someone who knows what they’re talking about. I’d love to see this guy in the police academy and be the good guy on the other side of these situations. Please employ veterans.

[@victorowens9150]

Just because he said that he was a veteran, doesn't make it so. Just saying.

[@michaelspunich7273]

He only served three years... that means he was discharged early... probably for bad behaviour. Not a veteran. He missed that by one year.

[@Spontaneous72]

Do you really think the average employer cares about hiring veterans? They couldn’t care less about veterans.

[@evilrobots]

@@michaelspunich7273 I'm an honorably discharged veteran of the US Navy. I served 3 years of active duty and then a bunch of reserve time.

[@evilrobots]

Once you take that first conviction, honestly, most employers won't consider you. Doesn't matter what you did, or why. They just don't want to hear it. In our society, regular people compete for jobs. Once you have a disabling factor (like a conviction, or a mental health situation), you are no longer going to be able to compete with regular people. You are literally out of the running for most normal jobs. What's left isn't usually that attractive.

[@danielcisco]

Damn! These LOE's are rocking the RMR and SRO's!

[@mykey39]

Unless you're Robocop, you ain't hittin' shit at that distance. Reckless for everyone involved but luckily it was at night and no one was around. But bullets can go through other objects when missing.

[@brian5148]

This just shows that handguns are the absolute worst choice for a gunfight.

[@Baddknewz]

People watch too many movies. They think hitting a moving target with a 9mm is easy or something lmao

[@jerryhamer]

Thank you for your service. Now hes gone. Sad to see

[@BRADH-xw8sw]

Did anyone count the cops rounds and mags used ? Guessing at 5+mags x 15rd = 75rds minimum ? OMG.

[@flightographist]

Those are reckless cops, firing down streets, buildings with paper thin walls as backstops.

[@cleancountershot3941]

That cop was shooting a damn Star Wars blaster

[@davidatwork]

Storm Troopers

[@mosin9105]

Thanks

[@MS-1994]

Who shoots pistols at that range and at night? How reckless!

[@aaronwalker1615]

I want a master replay of this video to the "BENNY HILL" Theme song !!!!

[@auklin7079]

It's crazy, if the guy knew his rights and played by them, he'd have probably walked away from that encounter.

[@RanLaw_]

The storm drain was one bridge too many.......hahaha
