That is called a bad day at work. I obviously hope I never have to be involved in anything like that but I think I am ready if it ever goes down. Guess we would see. Taking out some fools like that would be a awesome accomplishment.

What do you do if the suspects take hostages?

No surprises there. Violent gangs with "modern sporting rifles" rampaging in California, a state that glorifies criminals that lead police chases by making them instant media celebrities... I'm surprised it made the news.

They should make robbing banks illegal...

Under the right circumstances the answer is a precision gunshot, if the opportunity presents itself. In dealing with idiots like those the gloves are off. I would say they pretty much have to be taken out at the first chance.

So making it legal would solve that right?

Yea sure...if you do that than only robbers would be robbing banks.

I believe he was taking a swipe at the Standard Politician Procedure of standing on a soapbox screaming for new laws against doing something that was already illegal in the first place, with the new laws generally having something to do with guns.

Ya gotta educate them early! And if they do it anyway, give them a stern talking to before you release them back into the general population. They are simply misunderstood....


Some purple implied I guess...

Yeah, my sarcasm may not have come across well today...

Forum posts are difficult to convey such things.

MRAP's are useless and only used to take your guns and scare the public.

Holy cow I do not recall ever hearing about that one. So I researched a little. That was a bad day at work for a bunch of people. California sure does breed some major messed up people.
You tube link is kinda interesting.

I need to put something in my sig line stating that 90% of all above content is likely sarcasm, bitterness, and a last ditch attempt to maintain sanity.

But I thought evil, scary rifles with shoulder thingies that go up and 30 caliber magazine clips were illegal in California?

I couldnt imagine the right circumstances happen often. I was asking because im curious what kind of reaction do officers take in a hostage situation like this. Do you engage in a car chase guns a blazing or not so much?
