If trained professionals, 15-year NYPD veterans, can't take down an armed man a few feet away from them without injuring nine bystanders, could civilians really expect to do better under this pressure? Apparently during this incident and one Aug. 11, when police killed a man running around Times Square with an IKEA kitchen knife, bystanders started shooting cellphone video and photos. Far better, I say, than having them pull out personal pistols. But does that settle anything?
Ed.: If cops are so much better than armed civilians, where are the stories of armed civilians intervening to stop a shooter that result in nine innocent people being shot or otherwise injured by their fire? |
