That's gotta suck for Bloomie. What appeared to be an ideal soapbox for alittle blood-dancingnational conversation on how America's lax gun laws are hurting Mike's fat-free, sugar-free, low sodium gun-free paradise turns into a national conversation on why the hell can't Mike's cops shoot?
they "can't shoot" because decent firearms training is very low on the priority list in the academy training schedule, and a cop who shows "too much" interest in getting proper training makes the nypd police brass hats nervous.
ReplyDeleteadd: somewhere in a box of old gear i've got an old audley holster that was standard issue for nypd street officers, it was a piece of junk, with a spring latch engaging the front of the trigger guard that forced you to put a finger on the latch to draw the gun. an accidental discharge waiting to happen. i don't know what the standard issue rig for the glock they carry now is, but i'll be willing to bet its not much better.
