Re: CHL holder attempts to stop fatal hit & run.

Slinging bullets at a fleeing vehicle is my point and my only point.

I'd be very interested in hearing further from an LEO how wise an idea that is...maybe it's a wonderful idea, but I rather doubt it...

P.S. The Army, CPR, etc., isn't part of my point.

Re: CHL holder attempts to stop fatal hit & run.

"Noting the license plate and calling 911 is a perfectly reasonable action and the action with the least personal liability

I agree.

In my opinion stray rounds that had no reason to be fired, potentially wounding or killing an innocent isn't something I'd define as brave and bold, but unnecessary and extremely dangerous to the innocent.

But hey, when you have an LTC, might as well get the LTC badge or/or sash while you're at it.

Why not?

You toot-de-doo, you have an LTC!

Re: CHL holder attempts to stop fatal hit & run.

Hey guys, shoot all you care to when you think you're doing the right thing. (even though you're not at personal risk, but you must correct wrongs, you have a gun, so why not?) It'll be your problem when things go horribly wrong...as they often will.

But, you've got an LTC so shoot away, by all means. Oh, so sorry, one of your rounds hit an innocent bystander because you assumed the role of L.E. Good luck with that, you're going to need it, along with a great lawyer/lawyers and loads of money spent by you.

Just remember, an LTC doesn't make you an LEO.

Yeah, I know, it should make you at least an assistant LEO, right?

You are Don Quixote with a gun who must right all wrongs!

Re: CHL holder attempts to stop fatal hit & run.

LTC's are not LEO's.

Highly dependent upon circumstances before we step in slinging bullets.

Shooting at a fleeing car?

Do you know for certain where your misses are going to end?

Bad idea.
