I agree, but access or use of your firearm isn't always an option. Popping some dude for resisting is a quick way to end up in the slammer where they love to see cops come in.

Y’all can verify me later. Been on five years. Off tonight thanks to command’s BS screwing with our off days, but ... it’s true. Let it burn. KLB is allegedly in a panic. And I think it’s all 6 zones. All over our internal Facebook groups.

Mods, I’ll send my badge number, email, whatever. Have the IDs hanging by the door now

Get in a struggle with someone and they have access to anything on your duty belt, taser, pepper spray, gun, whatever.

Its clear you dont know much about how any of this works from the last part of your comment.

zone 5 just had a report of a woman down, possibly shot.

IIRC from the zone list Lucky Tiger posted earlier that's the nice part of town.

LEOs need better critical thinking skills.

Unfortunately, people with solid critical thinking skills don't become LEOs for $40k/yr.

It's a vicious cycle.

ETA - it's the sad truth and people seem to ignore it. If you've got anything going for you, you're going to pursue another career. Hell, the Supreme Court has ruled you can be denied if you're too smart.

Rumor is Cobb and Gwinnett counties have refused to offer assistance with staffing and Governor Kemp will not allocate the GSP to assist either

Can you elaborate to what extent these rumors are true?

I agree. I'm not saying that's the first go-to move, but wouldn't you want training to be able to control them when they get close to you and start reaching (like the cops in ATL)?

Are you going to toss your cuffs to them and tell them to put em on so you don't get within grappling range?

He's not actually a cop. He's posting updates from the reddit thread.

Why would they loan their valuable employees to a district where they can be charged with murder for following protocol?

frick that. Atlanta needs to fix Atlanta’s problem.

It gets worse each election year.

It is not a good feeling to be in a situation where you will always be wrong.

Eh, I don't think they're all dumb jocks like they're portrayed. I think a lot of them get jaded by the shite they have to deal with everyday. ER staff are the same way but we treat them far better than cops for some reason.

Not a bad idea...if they don’t put them on, drown them in pepper spray.

You’re getting downvoted but this is a very valid point.
