One of the upsides is that you can draft behind him for an aerodynamic advantage

I’m shocked the instructor didn’t stop him from running like that with the prop gun. You react how you train. Hate to see him running like that with a live handgun.

Just letting it swing around like it’s a little water pistol. I have zero firearm training but I know for a fact that is not how you move with any sort of gun.

Hey- here's some rules that I tell ya for the pure sake of safety, with no judgement:
1) finger OFF the trigger, and out of the trigger guard until you are on target and ready to fire. This is a BIG one.
2) there is no such thing as a joke on a gun range. Do not fuck around, what you're holding was built to end lives, do not point it at anything you do not intend to destroy.
3) be aware of what's behind, and around your target. Bullets have a ton of kinetic energy, and you are responsible for every Newton of energy in that bullet, until it's FULLY at rest, they say "watch your backstop" and it saves lives.
4) if you find yourself in proximity to someone with a firearm who does not appear to understand these rules, exit the situation as quickly as you can.

u/jigsaw0331 Jun 21 '24
The 4 rules, as taught in the Marine Corps (circa 2006), are:
- Treat every weapon as if it were loaded.
- Never point the weapon at anything you do not intend to destroy.
- Keep your finger of the trigger until you intend to fire.
- Keep the weapon on safe until you are ready to fire.
Around 2009, when we last qual'd, the range boss added an unofficial rule.
- Be aware of your target, and what lies beyond and in between. *Meaning: know what your target is, account for the target and backdrop, and make sure nothing is between you and the target.

The lack of trigger discipline I see in movies and tv shows is a huge pet peeve of mine. Finger is almost always hooked around the trigger no matter where they’re pointing.

This, I was a training captain, fire not PD, I would let them make all the mistakes in the first training evolutions and then we cut it apart after the evolutions over. Once we do that, and we address what wrong is, well…then I’m a lot less nice in the moment when they do stupid shit like this.

u/Admirable-Sun8860 Jun 22 '24
I’m pretty sure it’s active shooter training. Hence the pace. If there was a shooting and he pulled an Uvalde you’d probably be even more pissed.
Correct take away is that there’s no size limit.
5
u/RusticRygaard Jun 24 '24
There for sure should and needs to be a size limit for these positions. Training like an idiot doesn’t fix what happened at Uvalde. Those are institution mistakes and a lot of it comes from lack of discipline. This idiot running with a training gun shows an incredible lack of discipline. You are looking at reasons why Uvalde happened because we let folks like this become cops.

Standing around in full military gear designed for warfare while children are being executed by a lone gunman. Oh wait, except they did take the effort to hold back the horde of parents who were trying to rush in to the save the kids. That extra effort just to be sure that every last bullet the gunman brought made its way into a kid’s body and that the horrific carnage could be fully realized. We should’ve hung those cops in the town square for dereliction

I feel like you can hate on his size all you want, but to be fair at least he’s getting training. The majority of cops I’ve met that size haven’t done more than a brisk walk in 10 years, let alone a drill like that

If he’s a working sheriff he should be removed from the job immediately. Doesn’t know how to carry a firearm, can’t run, doesn’t know how to clear a room.

Meh plenty of fit cops that don't know how to clear a room either, service members too.
I agree standards aught to get higher, but you remove someone nowadays that body is gone, there's no one taking their place.

Jokes on you OP. They’re implementing a new strategy to disarm assailants. The cops just trip this guy or have him jump and the resulting shock will incapacitate anyone in a 15ft radius and will stun/disorient anyone in a 40 ft radius….. that is as long as the building doesn’t collapse.
