I had a Lieutenant that carried 7 magazines, in addition to the one in the weapon. He ended up doing 40 something years with the department before cancer forced him out. He had been in a shootout in the 70's and his philosophy was better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Couldn't really argue with that. 

I cant argue with that philosophy.

Are you saying he carried 7 magazines after being in the shoot out or he had always done this?

Again I ask because obviously if the event changed his thought process when it came to how much ammo he carried  it probably also changed how he viewed interactions and confrontations.

:o

Sick burn yo.

You must be a real tough guy.

To bad for the cop in the video you werent there to take out the perp. Maybe we can meet up and you can show me how to be a man?

Lol cops are paid to handle violent situations you can avoid and write tickets and arrest people and show up to court to testify when required.....  do you do all this in your community as well?

IronNat when you go into violent situations are you wearing a kevlar vest or is that unnecessary for an alpha like yourself?

Also do you neighbor's cower in fear when they see you approaching or do they just disperse like cockroaches?

Also can i have your address?


Thanks


Your reaction is a bit extreme.  You must think I am attacking you which is not the case.

Better ease off on the 'roids though so you can stop the rage

Untill then all will live in fear of your wrath..

He shot the perp 14 times and he was still standing! Don't blame him for wanting all the ammo he can carry. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. That's one time you are caught slipping that you won't get a second chance at.

Crazy that the dude was not only still standing, but still engaging with 6 fucking fatal wounds already.  He still manages to peep under the car, and takes 3 bullets to the skull and somehow still has vital signs when EMS arrives AND apparently makes it to the hospital....WTF??? Was the dude made of steel, AND on PCP?  Dude is super human FFS.

Godsmack hasn't put out a great song for quite awhile now, but check out this YT vid some dude made to the song "Bulllet Proof" using some Netflix show...

Agreed. I didn't expect them to be competitive at all this year.

And like you said to VGoodrum, Niko is playing really well.

It was after from what I can remember. But from 1970 something until he retired about 4 years ago, he was never in another shoot out so I'm not sure how that fits into the theory.

Well my theory was the shoot out caused a dramatic change in an individual's philosophy. And it looks like in at least one aspect it did. Obviously real research would need to be done.

Thanks
