I'd like to nominate "dimwitted batmen" to the TxCHLForum Thesaurus as a synonym for "mall ninjas".Excaliber wrote:One dimwitted batman at an incident scene is bad; two dimwitted batmen working together is likely to be catastrophic.
And, BTW, kudos for the plural use of the term. "Two dimwitted batmen working together" is a horrifying thought exercise.

Re: Scenario where off duty cop is in a situation with BG's
I do not believe that would be an issue. Many departments do not require qualification with off duty handguns. Mine didn't, either.JALLEN wrote:You wouldn't want a cop to lose his job for shooting someone with a weapon he had not qualified on, would you?
I love the P7, grip it properly and it works. ;)The local LEO's carry Glock .40's or whatever, you hand him a Sig 9mm. He hasn't qualified with that weapon, there is no paperwork.... Good Grief!
I'd hate to think what would happen if I handed this guy my P7M8, a type he likely has never seen or handled! Talk about a monkey with a saxophone, under pressure!!!

I also thought about Palosy and Reed. Names misspelled intentional. I don't respect them enough to even spell their names correctly.
