You're lucky. I just checked and here in France, pepper spray is a 'Category Six Weapon', and therefore prohibited. What a pathetic country this is. Get me out o' here ... please !! :banghead: Having been there many, many times, I'd have never guessed that Paris Texas is more "civilized" ...

I have no idea as to what authority the DPS disarmed our officers (in reality there probably is no such authority unless they were being arrested) and I personally would not have given him my gun. I would have told him to call a supervisor to the location and let's talk about why he needed to disar...

Bad for Europe???? What about US?!?! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: I don't know. I'm a former leftie. Economically, I'm probably still further to the left than most of y'all but on social issues (crime, etc.), I've shifted quite far to the right (due no doubt to having been the victim...

Although .... ' skip off ' ? I'd be interested in hearing when a .45 ACP round has ever 'skip[ped] off' someone's head ... :grumble maybe not skip off but was able to tell about it. Just know that the biggest, baddest bullet might not do the job.Thats why you always need a plan B cause plan A might...

possibly. it's still iffy, and at this point we're just throwing around theoreticals, like if you shot in the frontal bone, it's more likely with certain calibers to just skip off, rather than penetrate. or if you don't hit the base of the brain, well, it may not shut off the computer, so to speak....

Towards the end of the interview, the GG said that the BG asked if he was a cop and the GG said "yes" even though he wasn't. Now, I can see his reasoning for saying yes, but could this get him in hot water for impersonating a LEO[?] When you've arrested a robber, I think a few white lies ...

Obviously this situation worked out well for this chl'er, and I can't say what I would have done in this situation, and I don't want to say what he did was right or wrong, but I do have a question for you guys after watching his interview. Towards the end of the interview, the GG said that the BG a...

here's a slight twist. what if the bg has the gun aimed at the clerk? you want to stop the threat, but you don't want to risk the bg firing off a reactionary shot while he is being "stopped." well, like Massad says, you attack the computer! Indeed, if you look at the SOP for both the Metr...

In this case, as Herb pointed out, if the robber actually had a bomb and was willing to blow himself up, he could have taken several innocent people with him. How many bank robbers really have bombs on them? If they know how to make a bomb, then why not plant it somewhere and call the cops and dema...

Dude's just been interviewed on Fox News ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xla55bM6UrA Awful video. My take on it is from the 'safety' of several thousand miles away, but I don't really see why anyone would hesitate a single second. I believe I have a moral duty to protect life wherever and whenever I can. If I ever find myself mixed up in a...

yup. if you don't know how to use a laser, you can miss and hit the cashier. Thanks for all the responses. When I asked 'can you miss?', I was really referring to a mechanical problem with the laser, rather than human error. You know, going on the assumption that I've trained with the thing, that I...

What will all this talk of stopping armed robberies or kidnappings etc., I've gone back to check out the lasermax site... Say you're in one of the situations described on the forum over the past few days. You're at the back of the store checking out some stuff, you hear the ' MONEY OR YOU DIE, [inse...

Also note this guy was claiming a BOMB. This means that either it is likely very much a WORSE idea to intervene or very much more important and urgent to do so. If the guys hands are both showing and empty -- he needs to be subdued fully or shot in the head. If he's got a legitimate looking "d...
