It has been said that to turn an rear end in a top hat into a pussy, all you have to do is give them a badge and a gun. MYTH BUSTED

I have been out a couple years, but I don't remember being told during armed duty training to not immediately engage if there's an active shooter and you can do something about it. I probably got bad training.

Milo and POTUS posted:Cops are loving scum Don't feel too bad, the "good" cops still refuse to enforce any accountability among their peers, Like say there's a frat that's particularly know for raping people. Our bright eyed idealist joins this organization without ever expecting to rape anyone. But he doesn't want to be ostracized as a new member, so he helps look away from or actively cover up the rapes that are happening. Maybe they throw in some bullshit about how college life is just so stressful and those women were asking for it anyway, Our non-rapist OP who may even hold deep beliefs about rape is still abetting it for social reasons. That's the general culture with cops. If you're not actively supporting their corruption, you can't be trusted. How can anyone reform an institution from the inside when the institution itself and its elected leadership are just plain not interested in reform?

I honestly don't think I could live with myself if I'd stood around outside of a school and literally prevented people from going in to do something, even if that was to just die, while a bunch of kids got killed. But I guess that whole "make it home no matter what" mentality keeps a gun out of their mouth. I've never been shot at. I've never had a gun pointed at me. It's possible I curl up in the fetal position and piss myself in that situation. But I can't imagine standing there and doing nothing. I just can't. I'm not that kind of person.

So the cops’ story is a Wendy’s employee with probably minimal experience bested three officers in a gun fight then devised a nearly unbreachable barricade?

The layout matches what you can find for the school on google images and they're representing that classroom as having windows. Maybe I just don't get it but if the classroom he was in had windows on the other side and they didn't move around to there ?????

I suspect that the only reason anyone survived in that classroom is because he dropped his spare ammo early and ran out of ammunition in the classroom. The CBP Agent might have just got lucky that he rushed a person who was no longer able to return fire.

see the real issue is that only a good guy with a gun can stop a bad guy with a gun and everyone knows cops aren't the good guys. This is why we should arm the teachers and probably the children instead.

facialimpediment posted:I'm thinking WaPo's account is the correct one and more or less explains everything. This is so beyond vile and disgusting. If I was a parent of one of those kids I'd definitely kill myself. I wouldn't ever recover. This is horrific. That video with the father is soul crushing. As far the timeline and sequence of events, one question I have, that we won't know for a while, is when exactly did he kill the kids and teachers in the classroom. If he did all of the killing as soon as he got in there, or after he barricaded the door, then did the police not rush the target because they were all already dead? Is that the callous calculation they made, that since he was contained in one classroom it was better to just keep him in there? Did they even HAVE him contained at that point? If they had him contained, was the gap because they were evacuating all other classrooms so that the ensuing firefight when they breached the door wouldn't kill any kids in other rooms as dozens or hundreds of rounds go through the walls? What's with the loving 40 minute gap. That's my biggest question. Did they have a 40 minute firefight with the rear end in a top hat? Or did it take them 40 goddamn minutes to get some loving shields and halligan and a battering ram? How hard is that? How does that take 40 loving minutes?

I’ve increased my weed smoking the last few days. I’m obviously anxious but at the same time I’m just kind of numb to all of it. It’s been a firehose of bad news for seven years. And probably longer, but we made a (maybe final) turn into whatever reality this is in 2015. Never any good news. For seven years. 20% of my life has been nothing but bad news with the dial turned up to 1000. And over half of my life has been post-9/11. I can’t help but just kind of shrug my shoulders and tacitly accept that this is who we are as a species. I think it’s time to take a break from the thread again and I encourage others to do the same. Stop doomscrolling for a day or two.

That video with the father is soul crushing. Even if he shot them all immediately, waiting means you’re missing the golden hour to save kids. I can guarantee that at least a few bled out before receiving care. There is no explanation beyond they are cowards. The had no problem tasing unarmed parents trying to save kids, but they were fully tail between their legs when it mattered.

boop the snoot posted:I’ve increased my weed smoking the last few days. I read a academic paper or article a while back- the study of remains from the dark ages and early medieval times indicated that something like 40% of people died of violent means or suffered significant violence over the course of their lives. Human history is a study of awfulness. It kinda is who we are as a species. I suggest you maybe lay off the weed, maybe give micro-dosing of Psilocybin a try. It can do wonders for anxiety and help break cycles of thought that build and build that anxiety and subsequent depression.
