    NYPD - 3 shots - 2 bystanders hit

    http://abcnews.go.com/US/women-accid...ry?id=20261689

    When officers approached the suspect, he appeared to reach into his pocket to draw a gun. Two officers then fired a total of three shots, ABC station WABC-TV in New York reported. While they missed the man, they accidentally hit two women instead.

    You know....NYPD got a 66% hit ratio. That is problably some sort of a record for them. Not the right person.... But hey...baby steps...

    If a large number of people are willing to kill you for saying something, then it probably really needs to be said. .

    They may be actually afraid of legal CHL'ers shooting them because they're an actual threat of harm, according to this!

    If NYC weren't run by pathetic 3rd world despots, you'd think eventually they'd get sane enough to realize that killing off the gun culture in that area means that too many people they're hiring didn't have prior gun handling/owning background which is perhaps the stupidest thing they could do.

    Lets see we have crowded city environments, officers with around 8 hours of firearms training per year and 12 pound pulls on their Glocks and you don't expect this to happen sometimes?

    Doesn't NY specifically order some insanely heavy trigger on purpose for their duty weapons? I recall reading about it somewhere but I can't cite a source.

    They should stick to what they're good at. Random street stop and searches.
