You know what really pisses me off about the paul pelosi attack? Like, really just makes me want to eat some bacon?
I have seen cop training. I know what they do. One of the favorite training methods is a projected screen (to get things to life size), with some fancy tools to track where a fake gun/taser/pepper spray is pointed, and there are two guys running the computer in the background as an officer interacts with the scenario on the screen. The computer guys can change the scenario based on what is said/done/acted. There is a scenario that usually comes up with entry into a house where one person has a crowbar and is kneeling above another person lying supine beneath him.
The cops have a training scenario for this screams internally EXACT FUCKING SCENARIO! And they are ALL taught that the correct answer is to shoot the person with the crowbar if the scenario suddenly shows him lifting the crowbar for another strike.
That dude with the hammer should have been kirked.
What you do in a training scenario and what you do when it actually happens are two different things. Cops likely had no idea who the victim was, so them having inaction because of who it was is very unlikely

You’re absolutely right, and that may be the case. However, it must be admitted that is is much more rare to not follow your training than to carry out what you’ve trained for when you train for a specific scenario. Plus, this wasn’t even a split second thing. The fact that they’re at the door talking to the dude for a significant period of time gave them a lot of time to do the whole ‘one gun, one taser’ cop thing.

Funny that you think cops don’t no local vip addresses
To be kirked be needed to hold the opinion that it’s ok for other people to die and it’s just the consequence of being in a free society…
Oh. He was trying to kill someone. Yes kirked is the right term.
