    FANTASTIC article on the Dallas PD Shooting

    Putting this in our LE section in case we start discussing the use of the robot. Personally, I thought it was good.

    I really got a lot out of reading that article yesterday. I shared it with a buddy.

    Going through a Safariland class over the summer, one of the SWAT men involved that has since retired gave us the debrief of this incident. It was a fascinating lecture.

    That was a very bad day. It gives me chills reading that article.

    Excellent article. I am somewhat concerned about providing this level of detail but perhaps it's unwarranted and just my ingrained caution kicking in.

    My thoughts are with all the heroes...the living and the fallen.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    I really, really liked the bit about Officer Gordon explaining the truth to his niece regarding police killings and race. That guy would not lack for drinks around me.

    Only partway through the article, I think it's poorly written Hollywood garbage. Wtf is a high caliber round? An AK-74 is 'superior firepower'?

    The author is good at drama, but this is a TV script, written by someone who doesn't know guns, which leads me to believe they don't know police procedure, cops, law, etc.

    Harumph.
