Im glad you're telling your story. I'm also very thankful that you're still with us. Stay safe brother.

I’ve sat and talked to Wolf several times when I worked for Springtown. He’s extremely knowledgeable and squared away tactically, I’m so glad you made it though that brother.

He has a great story to share 👊

I am just making a transition from the corporate world to a career in law enforcement. I am getting so much out of your podcasts. Keep up the good work guys!

[@shotsfiredpodcast50]

Good luck with the change. Thanks giving us a listen!

Don't be a bootlicker You need to treat American citizens the same way you treat your grandparents. Don't let them brainwash you into thinking your life is more important than everyone else. Because that's the problem Acorn cop and all 300 cops at Uvalde were cowards that deserve jail for failing to protect and serve Meanwhile Uvalde was arresting parents trying to save their kids from being murdered.

This is my third time listening to this interview. His story is just mind-blowing. Wish him all the best.

What an amazing story. I really like the fact that your guests are so relatable and seem like everyday down to earth people (although they have a crazy and demanding job). It really highlights the fact that we're all just people, whether you're a jeweller(me) or a police officer (you fellas) we're all cut from the same cloth, humanity. Hopefully we can all work to lessen the "them vs us" mentality that we all harbour to some extent.

Well put. Thank you for that comment. Your support is appreciated.

I wonder if the shooter had training? Still listening so maybe it'll come out. It just seems like a big coincidence that he would pick the same tactical vantage point as a trained swat sniper. It also sounds like he didn't just unload all his ammo in the first minute. I wonder if there's some background there... Amazing story. Glad Tom made it. Thank you, Tom for opening up and being vulnerable about the aftermath. You're all great examples to young men.

Kyle says dude SO much lol I love it. Normally cops are such sick weeds and talk so proper so he is more relatable to me and my buddies. I got them all hooked on the shoe and they aren’t even in law enforcement like me

Civilians (and therapists) unless they have been in the same place where they have been threatened or injured during a violent crime, cannot appreciate the existential trauma they experience and PTSD. You see so many comments on police incident videos where someone states “that’s the job, they knew what they were signing up for” or the arm chair post incident “experts” who comment pretending they actually know what they are taking about. It truly is ignorant, but also dehumanising officers and what they experience and face everyday. One of the silent ones, I believe, is the accumulated vicarious trauma that sneaks up on police officers. Whilst I know many officers from those who specialise in child matters, or my son as a general patrol officer, as a therapist I can walk beside them as they talk to me, and other trauma survivors, I will never be able to walk in their shoes. Whilst therapists do suffer vicarious trauma, hearing something and physically being there is completely different. The general public you have never will never understand that unfortunately. It is a testament to all of you that you were able to raise above workplace culture, seek the help and support you need, return to work to face it all again.
