That was pretty stellar!
That was pretty stellar!
The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.
Humbly improving with CZ's.
Impressive on all counts.
Conditioning. (Hell, most folks would are somewhat gassed from the stress of just running and doing shooting exercises in training.)
Focus on the mission.
Making the shot under adverse circumstances.
Hell of a job.
There's nothing civil about this war.
Well done. At 3:00, he checks his optic and drops the lens covers.
Probably not his first rodeo.

Certified badass right there. As someone in the UOF thread pointed out, Tulsa PD’s Officers tend to be squared away.

My only nitpick is drive the car when you're driving the car. Everything else was at or near perfection.
Note how traffic acted. He was in more danger from the inattentive idiot motorists than the gunman for most of that encounter. That's an important thing to remember when tunnel vision and auditory exclusion has kicked in.
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.

In all seriousness, it would be completely unreasonable to expect a person to perform any better under those circumstances.
Extremely well done.

I went back and watched it again. 6:34...what in the actual fuck is he doing shooting across an entire six lane road damn near at vehicle level with traffic flowing in both directions?
If the guy in the pickup approaching from the left hadn't stopped I bet he would have gotten tagged by a bullet.
You guys go ahead and clap for him. I'm not that impressed in his decisions.
Nope, we're not in Iraq, and LEOs have to make shoot/no-shoot decisions all the time when there's other persons in the area. Unfortunately this is a reality of domestic policing, as police are frequently required to discharge their weapons in an environment with other persons around, especially in active shooter situations. Many times, it's simply unavoidable. We simply can't wish away the threat, and at the same time we simply can't wish ourselves away onto a square range devoid of distractions and no-shoots.
As it turns out, he didn't fire when it was unsafe to do so. He fired when it was safe to do so, in a very demanding situation.
Another officer may have not been prepared for that particular shooting situation; but he was and he made the right call.
