gasturbine, this forum has an edit button, why dont you use it.
I do. Just as I did above. :?: :?: :?:
For example, my dad doesnt know a damned thing about building doll houses, thats not his job, he's an engineer like me. If i tell him he doesnt know a damn thing about doll houses, thats not disrespect.
Apples and oranges. You stated, even said to bet, that they (the officers) did not have training. fact is, you dont know that.
Just because you blindly put your faith in LEO's and think they can solve all your problems, vs you ever having to do something for yourself, doesnt mean you respect LEO's more than I do.
Sheesh...I dont think they can "solve all my problems"...are we putting words into peoples mouths to support our agendas now?
So why dont you back up your speculations? Because thats all it is, speculation.
I dont have any "speculation"...only you do.
Actually no, I have completed training on the topic, I have gone through killhouse training on the topic of room clearing, slicing the pie and all the related tactics both in full light, low light and no light situations. What about you? What training do you have? What real knowledge on the subject do you have?
I never claimed to have knowledge on the subject my friend...I only questioned your improper blaket statement that LEOs have no training, and, your alternative to going in the house...by simply not, and waiting.

Sounds like I should have called you instead, right? :D

Take care.

It is not blind speculation. He knows cops they say a situation like this is a no go. Based on his knowledge of police tactics, knowledge of the situation, and knowledge of what his training (by veteran cops) says.

He made a personal assessment base on his (fairly extensive) knowledge of the subject that your average cop does not have the training for this situation. If you think that judgment is wrong that is fine, but he has the upper hand in the debate because he has knowledge about the topic.

It kind of helps his case that others with similar knowledge agree.

you always make double posts... just edit your previous post and combine them. I re read my first post and i meant to say tactical training, of course cops get basic firearms handling training but thats it.

And yes, you did speculate that they had training and could handle the situation.

After numerous PM's from several people in the community, we've decided to stop reiterating the points to you and "feeding the troll". I'm not going to put up with someone thats playing stupid and makes you quote yourself to prove that you made a point that you either fail to accept or fail to acknowledge.

Where the hell did they put that troll spray.

HAH i guess this means I'm joining the silent majority, lol !
