Drawing down on a cop(s), ramming a cop car(s), are acts of pure idiocy. How can anyone think that either would produce a good outcome.
People are exceedingly stupid.
Very much so Frankie Cee. ‘Ed asked me if someone had opened a can of stupid. More like a 55 gallon barrel of teh stoopid. Was really hoping for a trifecta of DRTs for our Beloved Wilted Willy, but hey…”…2 out of three ain’t bad.” The officers are good on their range time at this station and a big BZ for the Citizens holding down the dirtbag till the popo could get a handle on him. Too bad he didn’t hit his head on the pavement 6 maybe 9 times.
At the real risk and a “Clear and Present Danger” of starting a flame war in re the Canik METE S(ome) F(ine) T(oy), “…colored polymer frame…” *sigh* Need I say more? Other than that, nice pistol. Hey, it’s a generational thing. Even the toy weapons I had (and there were damn few of them) as a lad were made of wood and metal, again, as God and The Most Saintly JMB (Howitzer Be His Name) intended.
“Frame of Color” is the modern way to say “Colored Frame” .
“God must love fools, for he made so many of them.”
The Soviets even had a special term for some of them. I believe the term was polezni duraki, AKA “useful fools”.
I watched a funny video by a black comedian titled “How not to get your ass kicked by the Police”. While funny It was also good advice.
It comes down to a simple concept. The best way to come out alive and uninjured while in a situation with the Police is to simply comply with what they are telling you to do. The time to contest what is going on is in court afterwards if you are arrested. If the situation does not involve you stay the hell out of it. When the Police say to drop a weapon, you drop the weapon, period end of story. If you refuse it may well be the end of YOUR story. That and the gene pool just might be a bit cleaner in that case too.
A Chris Rock classic. It should be shown annually in school from Jr High through college, mandatory attendance.
Yup:
“Step one, obey the law.”
