          ^ Didn’t watch the video. So, too chickenshit to learn something that may go against your preconceived notions. You’d fight right in with the conservative FaceBook gang!

            I don’t owe you, an internet stranger, my time. And calling someone names expecting2 them to comply with your demand for their time is a bizarre tactic and also a dick move. Unless you can summarize this video in a paragraph tops, I just don’t care and with how shitty a person you’re showing yourself to be, we’re really down to one or two sentences which is more of my attention then you deserve.

        What would any one of us done if we had a gun and a vest and our family was in trouble? Obey orders, of course.

          Right. See there’s the issue. Had he gone in, there is no way to know if it would have escalated the issue and more people would have died including himself or worse, more children.

          It’s easy to sit on the sidelines and yell at the players in the game. We can pretend all day that we know what we’d do or even what the best thing to do would be-

          But at the end of the day- until you’re put in the situation yourself, it’s best to keep the armchair edits to ourselves.

            Agreed.

            in the situation yourself

            Not listening to people who want to take my AR-15 which is, as my 9-yo son stated, “the deadliest gun in the whole world!” LOL, it fires a hauling ass .22 bullet.

            I hate cops, but this thing was fucking rough in so many ways. Almost every comment I read online is full of shit. I’ve posted the PBS documentary several times already, but you may also be interested. It’s a hard watch, but if you want to understand, you gotta.
