    BWAAAHAAAA.

    Funny. It wasn't the video equipment that changed thier minds. It was the bullets coming through the window.

    BWAAHAAAA.

    How the heck did you even come up with that idea from the video. You should change your mind in light of what you now know. But? Maybe you already did know and this is just a symptom of your prejudice and/or <insert mental defect here>.

    In the NYC shooting where two cops about drained their magazines firing at an armed moving target on a crowded city street, it was no wonder nine bystanders were wounded.

    I'd be curious to know if any of the rounds passed through the intended target and wounded anyone.

    Only the world's most elite shooters could have dropped this target in this similar situation within a few rounds, and very few of the NYPD could have done this, if any at all.

    The world's greatest shootists, Wild Bill Hickok, FBI agent Jelly Bryce and Sgt. Alvin York could have done this with no problem.

    Almost any of DEVGRU Seal team 6, Delta Force, SAS Special Boat guys or similar experts could have also this shooting in the same manner.

    Certainly any typical cop, who is only expected to qualify under low standards of shooting ability, would have done the same sloppy shooting. Blame the city police departments, not the cops.

    All the three guys I mentioned, York, Bryce and Hickok were all self-trained, natural born experts with guns---even before any of the them joined the military/police/etc. York and Bryce were so very good, they were put to work right away training others to shoot in their outfits.

    Lots of people are good shots, like Annie Oakley and the shooters at the Olympics, but there is no evidence any of these talents could be so cool under the incredible stress of a live fire shootout. It is easy to put holes in a cardboard target that isn't moving and trying to kill you.

    Elite forces train so well that they can shoot and move accurately under fire.

    But, at least in free countries like the US, civilians can do pretty much the same training, and with God-given talent, can be just as good shots as the guys on the SEAL teams.

    However, as you know, the average cop or man on the street carrying a gun, would do no better than the two cops spraying lead in NYC given a similar circumstance.

    Leave "it' to the professionals.

    I so wish that were actually the solution to any vexing problem.

    The "professionals'. Bankers, politicians, military, doctors, teachers, yes, turn all responsibility over to them.

    That is as our Admiral Ricover said..."If you are not responsible, you are irresponsible".

    You can leave it to the "authorities" and "professionals" to mop up after you are dead or mutilated, if you wish.

    Not me.

    Strawman arguement. You are the only one marking the claim and assigning that claim to someone else. False logic on your part. Instead of making up a claim and assigning it to someone else, why don't you actually address what they are talking about. Once again you keep proving over and over your use of false logic.

    Like with a creationist, the only arguments she has are strawmen, false logic, invented facts, misrepresentations and ideology.

    Once again. How did you come up with this idea. The criminals changed thier minds when the bullets came through the window. Are you so closed minded that you will ignore the bullets?

    Then can you please enlighten me as to what the actual intent of the thread was if you are in disagreement with your own statements

    I detect powerful waves of confusion.

    the belief-in-own-strawman was only the surface of it!

    I don't watch videos - unfortunately I have to pay for my own network connection - and videos COST

    Plus of course videos have little worthwhile information and often are subject to the interpretation of the viewer
