Seattle police fatally shoot man while serving a warrant
SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle police officers shot and killed a 22-year-old man near White Center Thursday evening while serving a warrant in a homicide case.
SWAT officers and members of the department’s gun violence reduction unit arrived shortly before 6 p.m. to serve a warrant for a suspect in a Seattle homicide case from earlier this year, Seattle Assistant Police Chief Deanna Nolette said in a news conference.
Nolette declined to share details about the homicide case, the Seattle Times reported.
Officers used a PA system from outside the house to tell the suspect to surrender when a man came outside, allegedly armed with a handgun, Nolette said.
“We believe from the preliminary reports that he actually fired upon officers,” she said.

Man shot, killed during standoff with police at Ohio home
MIFFLIN, Ohio (AP) — A man involved in a standoff with police at his northern Ohio home was shot and killed by officers during a confrontation inside the residence.
A police SWAT team had gone to the Mifflin home around 1:30 p.m. Wednesday to arrest Sean Rowe, 38. He was wanted on menacing and weapons charges stemming from a Fourth of July confrontation at the home.
Richland County Sheriff J. Steve Sheldon told The Mansfield Journal News that authorities had urged Rowe to turn himself in, but he refused and his behavior had become more aggressive in recent weeks.
After negotiating with Rowe for about three hours, the SWAT team entered the home while Rowe was outside on a balcony. where he was seen wielding two machetes and striking them against a banister. He went back inside the home with the machetes when he heard the SWAT team in the residence, and authorities said he was shot after several attempts were made to subdue him with non-lethal force.

Hat tip to our Gun Bunny for the links.
As I have stood in the crosshairs of those who target Second Amendment freedoms, I’ve realized that firearms are not the only issue. No, it’s much, much bigger than that. I’ve come to understand that a cultural war is raging across our land, in which, with Orwellian fervor, certain acceptable thoughts and speech are mandated. — Charlton Heston

Does that “bullpup” feed better/more reliably than normal semi-auto actions? Or worse?
Looks like an answer in search of a question.
The major limiting factor on concealability is grip length and bulk, assuming in-waist-band carry. That is what shows/prints.
Cute little puppy dog.
That dog’ll bite you! Had a similar little dog like that back yonder. It was a cigarette lighter…among other things. 😛
Shorely did curry comb the inherwebz, trying to find a trifecta of DRTs for our very own Wilted Willy. Alas, it was not to be. The struggle is real, but hey, two (2) is better than none. He may not be grinning, but I’m shore that WW cracked a smile.
You could shoot your thumb off with that.
So Rowe had a Row with the Swat team and lost after negotiating with the Swat team for 3 hours in a Row. 2 machetes VS the Swat team doesn’t sound like a great idea.
Gun violence reduction unit. Didn’t work too well, did it. There also is a domestic gun violence reduction unit. Probably doesn’t have anything to do with domestic guns.
In both cases – these knuckleheads decided to fight the Law and like the tune goes…the Law won. Think that Bullpup pocket-rocket is a very cool back-up tool!
